Jason,

Thanks for the information.  I did check it out.  I am slowly moving through
the examples but still confused.

I would like to know how you would write the following using jdom

<Bears>
	<Northern>
		Grizzlie
	</Northern>
	<Southern>
		Black
	<Southern>
	<Western>
		Kodiak
	</Western>
</Bears>

The root.addContent(new Element(something, something));

 root.addContent(new Element("Unix", "unix"));
 root.addContent(new Element("Hello","helloagain","bye"));
 XMLOutputter fmt = new XMLOutputter();
 fmt.output(doc,out);

gives me this:

<Unix xmlns="unix" />
<helloagain:Hello xmlns:helloagain="bye" />

when I want this
	
<Unix>
	<helloagain>
		helloagain bye
	</helloagain>
</Unix>

Thanks,

Southin Simphoukham

See the JDOM faq at jdom.org and look for discussion about the book
being out of date.

The method you want is addContent().
