| | | Building documents from XML fragments | Building documents from XML fragments 2004-01-15 - By Ed Maher

Hi,
I am wondering what is the suggested way of building an XML document from
fragments of XML.
The xml is returned from a remote server in response to an XPath query - in
particular there is
a problem because the server does not return the namespace prefix declarations
in the fragment,
which means the document builder throws an exception
Exception - org.jdom.JDOMException  : Error on line 1: The prefix "erm" for
element "erm:loco" is not bound.
I would like to take the XML string and incorporate or merge the fragment into
an XML document
in memory, and/or create a new one from it.
I have access to the XML namespace bindings, but I cannot see how I can tell
JDom about these
without creating a skeleton document - and then I cannot see how I can 'import'
the remaining
fragment into the document.
Regards,
Ed.
