You should end up with a new contact element in the dump, writing it to file
should be this...
<cffile action="" file="#ExpandPath('.')#\contacts.xml"
output="#ToString(xmlContacts)#">
Let us know how you get on.

Subject: XML parsing in ColdFusion
I have two similar XML structures. I want to append a node from one
structure to the other. Can somebody point out to me how I would do this in
ColdFusion? I am apparently not getting the concept.
xmlDoc1 =
<root>
<member>
<memberchild1>
...
<memberchildN>
</member>
</root>
xmlDoc2 =
<root>
<member>
<memberchild1>
...
<memberchildN>
</member>
<member>
<memberchild1>
...
<memberchildN>
</member>
<member>
<memberchild1>
...
<memberchildN>
</member>
</root>
I want to append the member node from xmlDoc1 to the end of the member nodes
of xmlDoc2. Everything I try creates strange unfamiliar errors with
messages like "that node doesn't belong in this document" and "you have
tried to cast a variable in a way it wasn't meant to be used."
Thanks
