Method

StringdomNode2String(Node node, boolean indent)
Returns the String-Representation of the given DOM-Node as well-formed DOM-Document. 
Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, indent ? "yes" : "no");
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(new StringWriter());
DOMSource source = new DOMSource(node);
transformer.transform(source, result);
String xmlString = result.getWriter().toString();
return xmlString;
StringdomNodeListToString(NodeList nodeList)
dom Node List To String 
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for (int i = 0; i < nodeList.getLength(); i++) {
    Node node = nodeList.item(i);
    sb.append(domNodeToString(node));
return sb.toString();
StringdomNodeToString(Node node)
dom Node To String 
StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.OMIT_XML_DECLARATION, "yes");
transformer.transform(new DOMSource(node), new StreamResult(writer));
return writer.toString();
StringdomToString(Node domNode)
Transforms a DOM node (e.g. 
return domToString(domNode, false);
StringdomToString(Node domNode)
dom To String 
Source source = new DOMSource(domNode);
StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
Result result = new StreamResult(stringWriter);
TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.OMIT_XML_DECLARATION, "yes");
transformer.transform(source, result);
return stringWriter.toString();
...
StringdomToString(Node domNode, boolean indent)
Convert specified DOM Node to a string representation 
try {
    Source source = new DOMSource(domNode);
    StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
    Result result = new StreamResult(stringWriter);
    TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
    transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.OMIT_XML_DECLARATION, "yes");
    transformer.setOutputProperty("{http://xml.apache.org/xslt}indent-amount", "4");
...
StringdomToString(Node node)
dom To String 
try {
    TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    Transformer transformer = tf.newTransformer();
    transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.OMIT_XML_DECLARATION, "yes");
    StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
    transformer.transform(new DOMSource(node), new StreamResult(writer));
    return writer.toString();
} catch (TransformerException te) {
...
StringdomToString(Node node, int estSize)
dom To String 
String retVal = null;
if (node != null) {
    StringWriter sw = new StringWriter(estSize);
    xtrans.transform(new DOMSource(node), new StreamResult(sw));
    retVal = sw.toString();
    sw.close();
