That is actually one of the critical pieces of this. I am going to have a base XML document that will need to have information added based on certain initial conditions. Sorry for the code confusion - grabbed the wrong file handle. The real code should be in this message.

However, unless you have some need for a DOM instance that you can modify, I would suggest you stick with using Xalan-C's standard source tree. If you find you are doing lots of searches for attribute values, you might want to consider writing a DTD that declares those attributes as type ID, so you can use the XPath id() function to find nodes more efficiently.
