Sounds like you need to add the new tree to the root element as opposed to the document. For example: `myDoc.myRoot << myNewTree; </code>` `As opposed to:` `myDoc << myNewTree </code>` `If that doesn't work you can send me (jack_d_herrington@pobox.com) the code and I will take a look at it.`

I was so happy to see the easy-to-use syntax in this article that I turned the inline code into a library file and a Test::Unit test case. In the course of running the tests, I may have uncovered the bug reported here: the readxml method was not using the document's root to create the NodeWrapper, as the xml method was. Once I added ".root" to the end of the argument to NodeWrapper.new, I had no more test failures.
