本文所举的例子与保存html格式数据至xml类似。在以往当表格被提交后，我们通常会创建一个新的文档，现在只要文档已经存在，那么直接添加就可以了。此种技术的使用与创建基本数据类似。
在前面的文章里，我已经演示了如何使用xmldom。因此，我们可以直接进入本文的示例。
我们需要考虑的第一件事是我们将用于添加新"记录"的html 表单。在"将html表单数据保存至xml"例子中我们已使用过此表单，只是更改了文件名，但代码是相同的。
addcontact.html:
<html> <head> <title> Contact Information </title> </head> <body> <form action="processAdd.asp" method="post"> <h3>Enter your contact information</h3> First Name: <input type="text" id="firstName" name="firstName"><br> Last Name: <input type="text" id="lastName" name="lastName"><br> Address #1: <input type="text" id="address1" name="address1"><br> Address #2: <input type="text" id="address2" name="address2"><br> Phone Number: <input type="text" id="phone" name="phone"><br> E-Mail: <input type="text" id="email" name="email"><br> <input type="submit" id="btnSub" name="btnSub" value="Submit"><br> </form> </body> </html>
我们设置此HTML表单是来处理ADD。ASP的。这里的ASP 页面具有检测XML.文件及ROLODEX.XML是否存在的功能。如果它们确实存在，ASP则会在文件上附加新的条目，如果文件不存在，则需要创建。
Process Add.asp:

如果你已经读过关于"将HTML 表单数据保存至XML格式"的文章，你会注意到附加到将HTML数据扩展到XML文件的代码与HTML数据扩展到新文档的代码基本上是一致的。但是这里还是有两个主要的不同点：
'Call the Load Method of the XMLDOM Object. The Load Method has a
'boolean return value indicating whether or not the file could be
'loaded. If the file exists and loads it will return true, otherwise,
'it will return false.
blnFileExists = objDom.Load(strXMLFilePath & "\" & strFileName)
'Test to see if the file loaded successfully.
If blnFileExists = True Then
'If the file loaded set the objRoot Object equal to the root element
'of the XML document.
Set objRoot = objDom.documentElement
Else
'Create your root element and append it to the XML document.
Set objRoot = objDom.createElement("contact")
objDom.appendChild objRoot
End If 本节的代码来自addNewContacttoXML 功能。因为我们不可能每次都新建一个文件，所以我们改为保存CONTACT。如果能够LOAD此文件呢，我们则获得了这个XML文档的根元素；如果不能够呢，那么我们就假设它不存在并创建一个新的要元素并将它附加到XML文档上。
另外一个主要区别在于：当我们对文件进行二次检测，是否成功的LOAD，这样我们可以决定是否需要加上 一条处理指令。如果文件存在，我们就不需要加上这条指令。但是，如果创建了一个新的文件，那么则一定得加上这条处理指令。

'Check once again to see if the file loaded successfully. If it did
'not, that means we are creating a new document and need to be sure to

'Create the xml processing instruction.
Set objPI = objDom.createProcessingInstruction("xml", "version='1.0'")
'Append the processing instruction to the XML document.
objDom.insertBefore objPI, objDom.childNodes(0)
End If 除开以上两点不同之处外，你可以发现 保存数据至新文件的代码实际上是与 附加新record至存在文件的代码是一样的。我们创建一个新的element, contact CONTAINER，以便能容下每个新添的RECORD。代码将会在Form Collection of the Request Objec中不断重复以创建适合的XML节点并将这些节点值设置得与当前Form Field.一样。
以上就是给XML文档添加新 ”records”的内容，更多相关内容请关注PHP中文网（www.php.cn）！
