Hello, As far as I know there is no objection against having a comment between the document type definition and the document element. So why can't I insert a comment before an existing document element with xerces.
Element root = doc.getDocumentElement(); doc.insertBefore(root, doc.createComment("My Comment")); I've tried to this with version 2.8.1. I hope someone can explain.
