Hi:
When walking the DOM, is there a clever way to determine the association
between an XML comment and the element it is associated with?
For example, if I'm writing some code to walk the DOM trees of two XML files
and want to copy certain elements from DOM1 to DOM2, how
do I also copy any optional comment for the specified element in DOM1?
The problem, as I see it, is that the comment could be above or below the
associated element node. It could also span multiple lines or consist
of multiple consecutive comment lines.
Another idea (since the XML files I'm dealing with never use TEXT_NODEs) might
be to use the TEXT_NODE as documentation for a given element:
<Foo value="some_attr_value_string">
This TEXT_NODE serves as the
documentation for the Foo element.
It is always nicely encapsulated by the
associated element.
</Foo>
Thanks, Steve
