How to create XML document in Java

You may need to use a third party package such as XALAN or XERCES or JDOM.
The package javax.xml.parsers only contains interfaces and factories that handle third XML Parser implementations. This is so that you can write generic code... you will need to download one of the above, read about it and try to understand it before you even begin to think of using javax.xml.*.
You can get JDOM from - u will need the jar file in your classpath somewhere.
Typically in JDOM you would create a XML Document by doing this:
...
org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder builder = new org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder();
org.jdom.Document document = builder.build(new File(location.getFile()));
...
good luck
