Inserting elements into an existing xml doc 1

[lazytrucker]

Trying to use asp to add to an xml doc on the fly.

Method:

set elementchild=objxml.documentelement.childnodes.Item(i).childnodes(0).createelement("ElementName")

An error is returned object doesnt support this method.

Is there a way of inserting data in to an xml document using asp on the fly???

Any ideas appreciated.

Cheers Lazytrucker.

When you create nodes they are not inherently bound to the DOM tree of the document. The CreateElement method is a method of the document and allow you to create an unbound element. At that point you would then use something like:
InsertBefore(newNode,referenceNode) or
ReplaceChild(newNode,NodeToReplace) or
AppendChild(newNode)

So to achieve what you were looking at doing the code would be something like:

Dim elementChild
Set elementChild = objxml.CreateElement("ElementName")
objxml.documentelement.childnodes.Item(i).childnodes(0).AppendChild elementChild

Not to sure about the last line there, but it is pasted from yours so it should be correct.
