Add XML Node Attribute Help..

[kleptos]

Below is code i have to write an a node to an xml file. How can i add an attribute to the "error" node?

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load("Errors.xml");

XmlNode node = doc.CreateNode(XmlNodeType.Element,"error",null);
XmlNode item = doc.CreateNode(XmlNodeType.Element,"date",null);
item.InnerText = DateTime.Now.ToString();
doc.DocumentElement.AppendChild(node);
node.AppendChild(item);

doc.Save("Errors.xml");

The above gives me this:
<error>
<date>4/5/2003</date>
</error>

I want this:
<error id="14">
<date>4/5/2003</date>
</error>

Here you go:

    doc.DocumentElement.SetAttribute("id", "14");

or...

    XmlAttribute attr = doc.CreateAttribute("id");
    attr.Value = "14";
    doc.DocumentElement.SetAttributeNode(attr);

Awsome, Thank you....

Now, my next issue, and i didnt explain it right, sorry, this is what i need it to do.

<errors>
  <error id="12">
    <message>Message Here</message>
  </error>
  <error id="13">
    <message>Message Here</message>
  </error>
</errors>

That code (which works great) gave me this

<errors id="12">
  <error>
    <message>Message Here</message>
  </error>
  <error>
    <message>Message Here</message>
  </error>
</errors>

All you have to do is get a reference to the node you want to append additional nodes to.

XmlNode node = doc.DocumentElement.SelectSingleNode("error");
XmlAttribute x = doc.CreateAttribute("id");
x.Value = "14";
node.Attributes.SetNamedItem(x);

Thank you so much... I am trying so hard to learn C# with XML, and this helps me alot.
