Could someone explain to me what I'm doing wrong? I'm trying to get an element from one DOMDocument and append it to a different DOMDocument. The (simplified) output of saveXML() from the first DOMDocument is as follows: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <BranchRoot id="root"><option>1</option><option>2</option></BranchRoot> Here is a snippet of code: <?php $oXmlDocument = new DOMDocument( '1.0', 'UTF-8' ); $oRootNode = $oXmlDocument->createElement( 'menu' ); $oRootNode->setAttribute( 'id', 'root' ); $oRootNode->setIdAttribute( 'id', TRUE ); $oRootNode->setAttribute( 'style', $sStyle ); $oRootNode->setAttribute( 'width', $iWidth ); $oRootNode->setAttribute( 'target', $sTarget ); $oRootNode->setAttribute( 'indent', $iIndent ); $oXmlDocument->appendChild( $oRootNode ); $oNewChildEl = $oFirstDoc->getElementById( 'root' ); $oRootNode->appendChild( $oNewChildEl ); ?> I'm printing out what $oNewChildEl is to see if it's not returning the proper element, using echo '[' . $oNewChildEl->tagName . ']' . var_dump( $oNewChildEl ); and I'm seeing: object(DOMElement)#1055 (0) { } [BranchRoot] so it does look like it's returning the proper DOMElement. But even so, I'm getting a fatal error when $oRootNode is trying to appendChild(). Specifically, the error I'm getting is Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'DOMException' with message 'Wrong Document Error' What's going on? It doesn't seem like I'm doing anything wrong but something is causing the problem and I apparently do not understand exactly what. Could anyone lend any insight as to what's going on? And what I might do to get what I need done? thnx, Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
