How to embed one xmldom object to a node of another xmldom objec 1

[henryz]

Hello everyone,

I have some problem in loading an xmldom object to another node of an xmldom
object. I can load the html
content into an xmldom object, such as HTMLDOM. But I am not sure how
to append the HTMLDOM to one specific node of my original xmldom object. My
code is something like the following:

'my original xmlDom object
Set xmldoc = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot

'htmlDom to store html content
Set htmlDom = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot

HTMLString = '<snippet>' + HTMLString + '</snippet>';
HTMLDOM.loadXML(HTMLString);

' Build the XML document here
If (xmldoc.childNodes.length = 0) Then
Set root = xmldoc.createNode(&quot;element&quot;, &quot;report&quot;, &quot;&quot
xmldoc.appendChild (root)

Set rootnode = xmldoc.createNode(&quot;element&quot;, &quot;row&quot;, &quot;&quot
root.appendChild(rootnode)

'column node
Set colNode = xmldoc.createNode(&quot;element&quot;, &quot;column&quot;, &quot;&quot
rootnode.appendChild(colNode)

Set innernode = xmldoc.createNode(&quot;element&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;,&quot;&quot
innernode.Text =&quot;ID&quot;
colNode.appendChild(innernode)

Set innernode = xmldoc.createNode(&quot;element&quot;,&quot;value&quot;,&quot;&quot
??? ???
'Here I want to append htmlDom to the value node, but I am not sure how
to do it. I have a play with Chris Bayes's domtodom.js code
(

http://www.bayes.co.uk/xml),

but have no idea how
to implement the javascript functions into my case here. Some suggestions
here will be most appreciated..

Thanks in advance

nodeToAppendto.appendChild Domdocument.firstchild

or more specific to you:

innernode.appendchild htmlDom.firstchild

You can't append a document type node directly, but if you use domdocument.firstchild to select the rootnode you can then append it to the desired node in your other document.

Hope that helps.

Watch out for html formatting problems and namespace confusion though.... &quot;Lets integrate!&quot;
If it doesn't work it's not my fault.

Dear DrHeadgear,

Thank you so much for your reply. I try your way, but I had an runtime
exception, it says as following:


Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0005'

Invalid procedure call or argument: 'innernode.appendChild'

Some more suggestions will be great

Thanks a lot for your help
