Unknown Error in DOM when setting node.prefix or node.namespaceURI

Question

For an InfoPath form, I am trying to add non-blank values from a list in the default view to a repeating field for a bulleted list on another view. I am getting stuck trying to add the new nodes but I keep getting an error message that simply says "Unkown Exception".

Here is my code:

function XDocument::OnSwitchView(eventObj) { var symptomNode; var symptomsNode = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode ("//my:Symptoms"); var symptomTextNodes = XDocument.DOM.selectNodes   ("//my:SymptomText/*[text()!='']"); symptomTextNodes.reset(); while ((productNode = symptomTextNodes.nextNode()) != null) {     symptomNode = XDocument.DOM.createElement("Symptom");     symptomNode.namespaceURI =   "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2000-09-05T22:16:04"; // UNKOWN EXCEPTION???      symptomsNode.appendChild(symptomNode);     symptomNode.text = productNode.text; } }

Thots?

Answer 1

Hi,

Try to replace:
symptomNode = XDocument.DOM.createElement("Symptom");
    symptomNode.namespaceURI =  
"http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2000-09-05T22:16:04";

By:
symptomNode = XDocument.DOM.createNode (1, "Symptom", "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2000-09-05T22:16:04");

Using:
symptomNode = XDocument.DOM.createNode (1, "Symptom", "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2000-09-05T22:16:04");

Weird.  Let's do something here:
Please open a new blank IP form and drop one repeating section (with 1 textboxes), you will have the following schema:
myFields
  group1
    group2
       field1

Add a button, and put the following code behind:
var xmlParent = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:group1");
var newNode = XDocument.DOM.createNode (1, "group2", "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2005-10-19T03:11:22");
xmlParent.appendChild(newNode);
(replacing 2005-10-19T03:11:22 by yours)
Run and click on the button.
Do you get the same error?
