For anyone interested, below is my workaround, although I'd still like
to know why my first attempt failed. Thanks..
var child = node.firstChild.firstChild;
var theID="";
var nodeArray = new Array();
var i = 0;
var myGeometryToAdd = '';
while (child != null) {
if(child.nodeType==1){
nodeArray[i] = child;
i=i+1;
}
child = child.nextSibling;
}
for (x=0; x<i; x++) {
theID = nodeArray[x].getAttributeNS(null,"id");
myGeometryToAdd = document.getElementById(theID+"1");
myGeometryToAdd.appendChild(nodeArray[x]);
}
