Hi.,

I have changed my code like:
else if (qName.equals("thumb_image")) {

// create a new instance of Laptop
image = new Laptop();
image.setImageURL("image"+attributes.getValue("url"));

}
}

public void characters(char[] ch, int start, int length)
throws SAXException {
tempVal = new String(ch, start, length);
}

public void endElement(String uri, String localName, String qName)
throws SAXException {

if (qName.equals("Category")) {
// add it to the list
laptops.add(laptop);
}
else if (qName.equals("article")) {
laptops.add(article);
}
else if (qName.equals("thumb_image")) {
laptops.add(image);

But i didn't get my output...whats wrong in my code...give me solution for these ...
