Hi all

Because of my problems in XML conversions and some comments, I'm not sure If 
I'm 
doing right when returning the xml. I understood that any XML document 
syntactically 
correct should be ok.

am I right? in this case I don't understand why I have xml to dom failures.

Of course, a well organized xml document is preferable. Currently, in the xml 
output 
I have to send as response, I have to return a list of links, a list of n
odes [*] and the return code.

Which should be the way do structure the document? are there guidelines?

Maybe the way to do it should be:

<nmwg:message>
        <nmwg:metadata id="TOPSDownloadDBResponseMetadata"/>
        <nmwg:data metadataIdRef="TOPSDownloadDBResponseMetadata">

                // list of link elements

        </nmwg:data>

        <nmwg:data metadataIdRef="TOPSDownloadDBResponseMetadata">

                // list of node elements

        </nmwg:data>

        // result code metadata and data

        <nmwg:metadata id="result code">
                <nmwg:eventType>success.ls.remove</nmwg:eventType>
        </nmwg:metadata>

        <nmwg:data id="result code description" metadataIdRef="result code">
                <nmwg:datum>Text explaining the error message</nmwg:datum>
        </nmwg:data>

</nmwg:message>


Any comment will be greatly appreciated

Thanks so much
