Re: Unable to output DOM document into SVG/XML format

I noticed a couple things, but am not where I can currently compile/test....

Create the TextElement in the SVG namespace

Change ...

        Element e = doc.createElement("text");
...to...

        Element e = doc.createElementNS(svgNS, "text");

... append the text to the textEl...

Change...

        svgRoot.appendChild(t);

...to...

        e.appendChild(t);
