error modifying document within acceptNode method

[Mark Brucks <br...@j3s.us>]

I'm using the aceptNode method (DOMBuilderFilter) to handle special 
content during parsing.  According to the documentation, it is legal to 
modify the node within the method.  I am trying to add a new #TEXT child 
node, but getting an error trying to create the new text node that I 
want to add (using Document.createTextNode() to create the new node).

This error causes handleError to be invoked, but the problem is that 
DOMError.getMessage() returns a null string, so I can't tell what the 
real problem is.

Should I expect createTextNode() to work before parsing of the document 
is complete?  Are there any restrictions on document modification from 
within acceptNode()?

Thanks - Mark Brucks

DOH!

Sorry all - if you took the time to read the original post you probably 
realized that I can't call the createTextNode method until after parsing 
is complete (parsing returns the Document object, which implements the 
createTextNode method).

I'd like to say it was lack of sleep or the alignment of the stars, but 
I can't.
