& XSLT Hello John,
   
  i recently started using XML::LibXML.  what i did was made a "deep" clone for a set of ele
ments to repeatedly insert the clone onto the end after some modifications to the attributes
.  try this:
   
  my $cloned_node = $node-> cloneNode( 1 );
  ...then...
  my $last_node = ( $document-> findnodes( '/root_node/plot[last()]' ) )[0];
  $last_node-> addSibling( $cloned_node );
   
  reply if you need to insert some whitespace.
   
  hth, jim woodworth

  Bjoern,

This is my first time using Perl to work with XML in this way, so my reasoning for using XML
::DOM is simply based upon some examples I have found. Do you think it would be better to us
e XML::LibXML when making a copy of data in one file to paste into another? 

My thought was that cloning the node would be easiest way to simple grab all the content bet
ween <Article> </Article> so that this data could be pasted into another XML file.  Basically
, I have a lot of 'stand alone' files that contain content, and I need to consolidate that c
ontent into one main XML file. 

Ex:
a = clone of <Article> nodes between</Article>
then
paste in between <Articles> </Articles> in another file.

Thanks very much for your response.

If you have XML::LibXML I don't think there is any reason to use
XML::DOM. As for your problem, getElementsByTagName returns a node
list (zero or more nodes); you are trying a method for a single
node on a list of nodes, you have to clone the nodes one by one. 
Not that I am sure why you are trying to clone them in the first
place.
