need help with editing an XML file with Java

[Pesho318i]

Hello all,

I guess my question is simple, but I'm not experienced enough with Java and XML.

What I want to do is read an XML file then change some of the attributes and finally output it to a file again. (if possible using the DOM Java parser)

I don't know which Java tools to use about changing the content of an XML file.

hope you know the solution,
Best,
Pesho
