Inserting or appending a set of nodes, i.e., NodeIterator or NodeList, into/to the DOM

[Pae Choi]

First of all, I am not sure if this is related to Xalan. If not,
please discard this message.

Say we have a DOM, i.e, org.w3c.dom.Document, is there
a simple way to insert or append the set of nodes into/to
that DOM.

The representation of those nodes mentioned above will
be either NodeIterator or NodeList returned by XPathAPI's
method, selectNodeIterator() or selectNodeList(), respectively.

For example, we have a DOM as follows:

<patient-info>
    <patient>
    </patient>
</patient-info>

And the set of nodes will be as follows:

        <age>38</age>
        <gender>female</gender>

So afert either inserting or appending the set of nodes, the
result will be as follows:

<patient-info>
    <patient>
        <age>38</age>
        <gender>female</gender>
    </patient>
</patient-info>


Again, is there a way to accomplish this in a simpler manner
instead of parsing the set of nodes and insert or append the
individual nodes one by one. Thanks.
