I am trying to transform data into an existing document by locating
the inserting point i.e. the <CmdData> element. The Transformation
only wants to add child elements to the existing element.
The problem is, Xalan does not realize that a DOMResult already
has a root node and complains about multiple root nodes.
I have been able to work around this by forcing the Transformation
to duplicate the parent Element then just remove the redundant tag.
but I would rather not do the extra document editing if its not
necessary.
Example Document & Code below.
TIA

Original Document
<CmdData>
</CmdData>
After Transformation
<CmdData>
<CmdData>
<InsertedData>Exists Here</Inserted Data>
</CmdData>
</CmdData>
Code to perform the trasnformation
// Get the inserting point
Element response = ctx.getNewAppData();
DOMResult XMLOut = new DOMResult(response);
transformer =
CachedXSLTransformer.getTransformerFromResource(XSLResourceName, null);
transformer.transform(
new DOMSource(cmdDoc),
XMLOut);
// Edit out the rudundant tag
ctx.setAppData( (Element) response.getFirstChild());
