Hi,
	There are two possible problems:

1. You cannot use append child directly to copy a part of a DOM tree into another \
one. You have to use 

importNode(Node importedNode, boolean deep) 

of the Document interface.


2. Another problem you can face even after using the above is incompatibility between \
two DOMs, i.e. One of the document object can be a DOM 1 object where as the other \
can be DOM 2. But you need not worry about this if you are using the same Xerces \
package for creating all the documents.

Hope this helps,

Rajesh.

Hi!

I am new to Xerces 2 for Java and i am trying to copy a part of a dom tree to a new \
dom document but with cloneNode(true) and then appendChild(..), i just get a  \
DOMException:

DOMException: DOM005 Wrong document

So i looked at DOMException! It just tells me that i cannot use a node in a document \
which it did not create it! *grmbl*

Is there any help (method) or do i have to write recursive function which is creating \
all the elements and values?

thnx
OEzguer Demir

p.s.: sorry for my bad english!
