DOMNode AppendChild () function question

["Liu, Richard" <Ri...@boeing.com>]

Hi,
 
   I have a XalanNode, I need to append new node to it.
 
   After I call the function "mapNode", I change it to a DOMNode, then I call the function appendNode ().
 
   However, I got an "XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE::DOMException error".    
 
  When I read the description of DOMException error for function appendNode (), I found my error may come from the following description:
 
   WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: Raised if newChild was created from a different document than the one that created this node.
 
My new child comes from a different document, how can I append the new child to this document ?
 
If there are some code example, that will be very helpful.
 
 
Thanks

Hi,

You need to use importNode() and then use appendNode().

Any good book or tutorial on the DOM will explain the details.  This is 
really out of the scope of Xalan-C, so you will not find any information 
in our documentation and samples.
