Hi,
I tried your suggestion as shown
// create comment as shown
nsAutoString str,comment,value;
comment.Assign(NS_LITERAL_STRING("<!-- MY COMMENT -->"));
nsCOMPtr<nsIContent> text;
NS_NewCommentNode(getter_AddRefs(text),nsnull);
nsCOMPtr<nsIDOMNode> commentNode = do_QueryInterface(text);
nsCOMPtr<nsIDOMDocument> doc;
node->GetOwnerDocument(getter_AddRefs(doc));
nsCOMPtr<nsIDOMDocumentRange>
docRange(do_QueryInterface(doc));
if (docRange)
{
nsCOMPtr<nsIDOMRange> range;
docRange-
>CreateRange(getter_AddRefs(range));
if (range)
{
range->SelectNode(node);
nsCOMPtr<nsIDOMText> newtext;
//doc-
>CreateTextNode(comment,getter_AddRefs(newtext));
//range->InsertNode(newtext);
range->InsertNode(commentNode);
}
}
Both InsertNode(newtext) and InsertNode(commentNode) gives me the same
result.
I get < MY COMMENT > and not <!-- MY COMMENT -- > as expected.
How do I overcome this?
regards,
Krithika
