What output do you get from the code below? I get 2 dumped xml documents. The first one has 3 person elements under the employees node and the second one has 2 person elements under the root node.
The original company doc has only 1 person, so to me that looks like it's appending both barney and fred as employees to the company doc and not removing or replacing anything. Or did I misunderstand what you're asking?

Its doing a replace and not an append as far as I can tell, Barney sure has gone about. -----Original Message----- From: Stephen Milligan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 24 June 2004 8:28 AM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] RE: xml element append or something Yeah, that code is copying only the first person node. If you want to copy all of them you can wrap a loop around the outside of it and treat the person node as an array: <!--- This step returns a java object rather than a ColdFusion XML Node ---> <cfloop from="1" to="#arrayLen(candidatesdoc.candidates.person)#" index="i"> <cfset newNode = candidatesdoc.candidates.person[i].cloneNode(true)> <!--- Change the owner of the node ---> <cfset companyDoc.changeNodeOwner(newNode)> <!--- Append it to its new parent ---> <cfset companydoc.company.employees.appendChild(newNode)> </cfloop> Spike -------------------------------------------- Stephen Milligan Code poet for hire http://www.spike.org.uk <http://www.spike.org.uk/> Do you cfeclipse? http://cfeclipse.tigris.org <http://cfeclipse.tigris.org/> ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Taco Fleur Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2004 2:12 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] RE: xml element append or something I was going to say "ai ai you dirty little rascal, when you get back I'll buy you a beer" until I saw you made Barney disappear!! It did a replace instead of an append.
