java getelement,Java DOM getElementByID

I am using DOM parser in Java to add child nodes into existing nodes.

My XML is

center

null

#909090

25

Is there any way to directly add child nodes under existing ones? Can I use something like this?

Node myNode = nodesTheme.item(0);

this.widgetDoc.getElementById("/chart/legend").appendChild(myNode);

My Code

import org.w3c.dom.*;

import javax.xml.parsers.*;

public class TestGetElementById {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

String widgetXMLFile = "piechart.xml";

DocumentBuilderFactory domFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

domFactory.setNamespaceAware(true);

DocumentBuilder docBuilder = domFactory.newDocumentBuilder();

Document doc = docBuilder.parse(widgetXMLFile);

Node n = doc.getElementById("/chart/legend");

//Node n = doc.getElementById("legendTag");

Element newNode = doc.createElement("root");

n.appendChild(newNode);

}

}

getElementById is specifically for retrieving DOM elements by their id attribute. Try this instead:

this.widgetDoc.getElementById("legendNode").appendChild(myNode);

For other ways of retrieving DOM nodes, look into querySelector and querySelectorAll.
