adding element to xml file from c#.net

Question

how to add element to a xml file using asp.net& c#.net inweb application

It'd be helpful if you were a bit more specific about the element you want to add, perhaps giving us a sample of the file you want to modify? =) — Rob

Here's an example of adding a new element to the root node:

XDocument doc = XDocument.Load("test.xml");
doc.Root.Add(new XElement("someNode", "some node value"));
doc.Save("test.xml");

Load the document using XmlDocument class and then modify it as needed. Reference documentation and examples here.

You can use XmlDocument.CreateElement method to create it and then to append it
