Hai
there is an method in Document to create comment
Comment comment = Document.createComment("Specify comment to be added");
then as usual you can append as a child to the node you want to add using the appendChild() method

Hei
after parsing you can take the values by getting to the node
you can take this by using the method
NodeList nl = Document.getElementsByTagName("INVOICENO");
as shown above this gives all the elements with the said name.
Node invoice= nl.item(0); \\this gives you the code the value '0' denotes the first element
Node value = invoice.getFirstChild(); \\this gives the text node from where you can take the value
String s = value.getNodeValue();
Hope this helps
Cheers

Hai
you can do so like this if you want to duplicate some nodes
Document doc = dom.getDocument();
Element clone = (Element)doc.getElementsByTagName("name").item(0);
Node cloned = (Element)doc.importNode(clone,true);
doc.getDocumentElement().appendChild(cloned);
the boolean argument in the importNode() method is set to true if you want all the subnodes and values ,If it's set to false,then you will get only an empty node

Hope it helps

Hai this works fine
i tested it in xerces1.4.3.actually the encoding ="UTF-8" gets included in doing so.

Document doc = new DocumentImpl();
doc.appendChild((Element)doc.createElement("root"));
ProcessingInstruction PI= doc.createProcessingInstruction("xml","version=\"1.0\"");
doc.appendChild((Node)PI);
Hope it helps

if you have to get the value for "name"
you can do so like this
document.getElementByTagName("login").item(0).getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
