Creating new DOM

[Harinee Sampath <ha...@hotmail.com>]

Hi,

I needed some help with creating a DOM frm scratch.The DOMGenerate example 
in xerces/samples does not run and gives some errors.I want to have a clear 
idea of the output that the example gives.
I do not understand from the example the exact tree structure(which element 
is the child of which element).
Also the setAttribute method,if used right after creating an Element ,does 
it automatically belong to the element created,or is another method required 
to specify that?If so,which?

Thanks,
Harinee

I just tested dom.DOMGenerate, it works fine for me . Would you mind sharing
how you ran the sample and the error message you got?

Bascially the program will print out:
<person> <name>Jeff</name><age>28</age><height>1.80</height></person>
in which "person" element has 3 children "name", "age" and "height", all of
which has text content.

As for setAttribute method, if used right after creating a Element, if you
setAttribute on the element object you created, the attribute will certainly
belong to that element.
