>>appendChild takes a Node argument and not a string. Could you try again
Sure. Basically what I am asking is , once you've created an object how do
you insert it into the tree.
I start with:
<xdoc>
<greeting>Hello XML</greeting>
</xdoc>
I want to end up with
<xdoc>
<greeting>Hello XML</greeting>
<greeting>Hello DOM</greeting>
</xdoc>
I create an element greeting with
document.createElement(greeting)
I create a text node with
document.createTextNode("Hello DOM")
How do I insert them into my document tree? by append child? by
insertBefore?
If I use append child, how do I reference them, because as you say they are
not inserted into the tree therefore cannot be referenced by a nodeList
integer.
