Newbie question : DOM to DOM conversion

["Kurian, Binil" <BK...@crt.xerox.com>]

Hi,


I am trying to convert an Existing DOM element using Xalan to another DOM
Element.

If i create a DOM source with the "Document" object (parent of  the original
DOM element), Xalan seems to transform the element just fine.
But if is create a DOM source using the Element itself, Xalan doesn't
convert the original DOM element in the required way. 
It returns a document with a DOM element which it doesn't contain all the
required information. 

Is a DOMSource object always to be constructed using a Document object?


Thanks and Regards,
binil

Can you post your code and the XSLT document that you're using for the
transformation?  This should work, I think.

Thanks,
Gary
