Cloning a tree 2003-01-13 - By Brian Madigan
Hi,
This might not be the cleanest or best way, but I
sometimes need to create new Documents from fragments
other documents, the operation is pretty much the same
as what you need:
//first create an empty document:
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf =
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance()
Document clone = dbf.newDocumentBuilder(
).newDocument( );
// import the document element or the node you are
cloning
clone.importNode(docToClone.getDocumentElement( ),
true);
clone.appendChile(docToClone.getDocumentElement( ));
