If that doesn't work for you, modify the DomWriter sample code to what you need.

Mr. Gaitonde, You could try using the org.apache.xml.serializer classes. Something like this may do what you want: import org.apache.xml.serialize.*; import java.io.*; . . OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat( doc ); StringWriter stringOut = new StringWriter(); XMLSerializer serial = new XMLSerializer( stringOut, format ); serial.serialize( doc.getDocumentElement() ); Then you can access the string: System.out.println( "STRXML = " + stringOut.toString() ); Thanks, Jeffrey Rodriguez XML Development IBM Cupertino >From: Salil Gaitonde <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Document toString()? >Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2000 08:53:42 -0800 (PST) > >Hi, > >I am new to the Xerces-J parser...
