Mariano I'm about to migrate the XMLParser to SmalltalkHub and I know that you have a DOMTree and a saxAPI So with the DOMTree I do not see why we could not manipulate the tree.

Here are two approaches that seem to work fine: | dom | dom := (XMLDOMParser parse: '<foo><bar>text</bar><baz>100</baz></foo>'). dom firstElement addNode: ((XMLElement named: 'mariano') addContent: 'Hi there !' ). dom prettyPrinted. | xmlWriter dom | xmlWriter := XMLWriter new writeWith: [ :writer | writer enablePrettyPrinting; xml; comment: 'Generated from Pharo.'. writer tag: 'root' with: [ writer tag: 'parent1' with: [ writer tag: 'child1' with: 'grrr'. writer tag: 'child2' with: 'grrr' ]. writer tag: 'parent2' with: [ writer tag: 'child3' with: 'buhhhr' ] ] ]. dom := (XMLDOMParser parse: xmlWriter contents). dom firstElement addNode: ((XMLElement named: 'mariano') addContent: 'Hi there !' ). dom prettyPrinted. I guess it would also be possible to completely construct the DOM tree manually. Regards, Sven

To do what he wants he should have an XML DOM and manipulate the DOM nodes directly. I don't know if we have such thing in Pharo.
I would be very surprised if that were not possible: create a DOM tree, either manually or by parsing some XML, then add some nodes and finally render it again.
I never did this, but I'll have a look if I have some time.
