XML bombs out when can't locate element

Question

Hi,  I'm using simple XML parsing:
XmlTextReader textReader = new XmlTextReader("http://somewhere.com");
textReader.Read();textReader.ReadToFollowing("someElement");
Games.Add(textReader.ReadElementContentAsString());
but when it can't find someElement my code bombs out with The ReadElementContentAsString method is not supported on node type None.  How do I test when it's exhausted all occurrences of the element. I can't find anything useful
Thanks Thomas

I would use XLInq or the XML Linq library to parse XML or the XmlDocument. It's much easier to work with the XML. Use XmlDocument along with XPath statements to pull out data, or if you are more familiar with LINQ then use the XDocument.
