Christ. Sometimes it just takes someone to point out the obvious ... I
was grabbing the root node of the document after creating it with
createDocument(null,"root",null), assigning it to a Node object, but
then later on, when trying to append my first element to the root, I was
trying to append to the doc, not the root node I had retrieved.
Sorry for wasting everyone's time!!

append it to my 'root' Node, which I got from 'getDocumentElement()'
previously. It is at this point, in the 'appendChild' call, that I get
the exception HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR: This node isn't allowed here.
What's going on here?
Are you sure you are not trying to create two root nodes? That would be
invalid XML. THis is OK:
Document doc= new DocumentImpl();
Element root = doc.createElement("person"); // Create Root Element
Element item = doc.createElement("name"); // Create element
root.appendChild( item ); // atach element to Root
doc.appendChild( root ); // Add Root
This gives a Hierarchy request error:
Document doc= new DocumentImpl();
Element item = doc.createElement("person");
doc.appendChild( item );
Element item = doc.createElement("name");
doc.appendChild( item );
