The application is Jakarta Struts based. When the form is submitted
the values are stored in Bean e.g. theItem and stored in the DOM tree:
Element elem = getElementByIdAttribute (theItem.getId());
log.trace(theItem.getHeadline());
elem.element("headline").setText(theItem.getHeadline());
When everything is stored I write into a file with the following code:
OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat( "", false, "iso-8859-1");
FileWriter out = new FileWriter(file);
XMLWriter writer = new XMLWriter( out, format );
writer.write( doc );
out.close();
Thanks,
Martin
