[cfaussie] Re: Coldfusion XML, adding an XML node from another XML document object
Coldfusion XML objects can be manipulated by the native coldfusion struct and array methods, depending on the xml parts you wish to manipulate. Full list of native functions is here: http://www.co.multnomah.or.us/cfdocs/Developing_ColdFusion_MX_Applications_with_CFML/XML7.html On Mar 4, 6:17 am, BarryC barrychester...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I've hunted around for a solution to this but haven't found a simple or clean one (maybe there isn't one) but maybe someone here has some suggestions.

There doesn't seem to be any simple examples on how to use XmLElemNew() to create a copy of a node easily it looks like you'd have to manually iterate through the element attributes and set them.

[cfaussie] Re: Coldfusion XML, adding an XML node from another XML document object
Thanks, yes I had stumbled across that in my hunting. Seems odd how there are not some proper Coldfusion commands for that sort of stuff, it's like they decided to make half the XML functions and then gave up.
