(ie, if one of the children of the Fragment is not something that can be inserted into the target node)... What's the expected behavior? There are three obvious choices: 1) Insert up to the point where the conflict exists, leave it and anything following in the DocumentFragment. Reasonable, trivial to implement. And since it's what I'm currently doing, I'm slightly biased toward it. 2) Scan all the kids before insertion starts, and throw the exception if any of them are unacceptable. Reasonable, a bit more overhead but far from unacceptable, and arguably a bit more robust. 3) Copy all the kids which can be copied, leaving only the problem children in the DocumentFragment. A bit less reasonable, I think, but also easy to implement. ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research Unless stated otherwise, all opinions are solely those of the author.
