I believe that at the moment only the conversion from w3c document to dom4j document is supported and there is also always the possibillity to use DOMElement which can be used as both a w3c element and a dom4j element.
The conversion code should look something like this: <code>* /** * Convert dom4j element to w3c element **/ public org.w3c.Element convert( org.dom4j.Element element) { org.dom4j.Document doc1 = DocumentHelper.createDocument(); doc1.setRootElement( element); // Convert dom4j document to w3c document DOMWriter writer = new DOMWriter(); org.w3c.Document doc2 = writer.write( doc1); return doc2.getDocumentElement() ; } /** * Convert w3c element to dom4j element **/ public org.dom4j.Element convert( org.w3c.Element element) { DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder(); org.w3c.Document doc1 = builder.newDocument(); doc1.appendChild( element); // Convert w3c document to dom4j document DOMReader reader = new DOMReader(); org.dom4j.Document doc2 = reader.read( doc1); return doc2.getRootElement(); } </code> *Code not tested.
