you are using this code which give null while parsing description.

I try your code and to get the content of description.

I use

child.getTextContent()

and it give me the content.

Change your code to

public final String getElementValue( Node elem ) {
 Node child;
 if( elem != null){
 if (elem.hasChildNodes()){
     for( child = elem.getFirstChild(); child != null; child = child.getNextSibling() ){
         if(child.getNodeName().equalsIgnoreCase("description"))
         {
             return child.getTextContent();
         }
         if( child.getNodeType() == Node.TEXT_NODE  ){
             return child.getNodeValue();
         }
     }
 }
 }
 return "";
}

And you got the content of description as well..,. Try it..,.
