Update xml with form

[sw1267]

I need your help on this. I was asked to CRUD a mach-ii.xml with a form. Since it is not a normal xml file, it is difficult to manage it. Please offer your advice how this should be tackled.

Thanks,
Bill

Now I can take the data out of the file. Question is how could I put it in a structure so I edit and update it. Please advice.

I am trying to add a new element to an xml file, I has 5 existing, so I am trying to add the sixth. but got an error message, anyone could help me on this?

Thanks,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The index of a child element is out of range.
There are only "5" children under this node.
Therefore index "6" is out of the allowed range [1-5].

The error occurred in C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\myfolder\addNew.cfm: line 18

16 : newNodePos = arrayLen(variables.xml.machii.listeners.listener) + 1;
17 : // add new node then set it's attributes
18 : variables.xml.machii.listeners.listener[variables.newNodePos]= XMLElemNew(variables.xml,"listener");
19 : structInsert(variables.xml.machii.listeners.listener[variables.newNodePos].XmlAttributes,"name","#form.listenerName#",1);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

here the code:
<cfscript>
// get array position of next XML child to add
newNodePos = arrayLen(variables.xml.machii.listeners.listener) + 1;
// add new node then set it's attributes
variables.xml.machii.listeners.listener[variables.newNodePos]= XMLElemNew(variables.xml,"listener");
structInsert(variables.xml.machii.listeners.listener[variables.newNodePos].XmlAttributes,"name","#form.listenerName#",1);

</cfscript>
