How can I create an Element Node

[andy lau]

Hi,

Can you please tell me how can I create an Element Node for a
nsDocument?

http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla1.9.1/source/content/base/src/nsDocument.cpp#4621

After I create an Element Node, I can add tagName, add attribute key
and value to that?

Thank you.

The easiest way is probably to QI nsIDocument object to nsIDOMDocument
and call its CreateElement or CreateElementNS method.
After that you can add the attributes you need to.

(I don't know why you added the link to that line
in nsDocument.)

Btw, any reason why you don't use anything newer than 1.9.1?
