Extending (subclassing) Elements: msg#00028

Subject: Extending (subclassing) Elements
This might be more of a Java question, but I'll ask it here anyway since
our Java gurus don't have an answer...

I would like to subclass Elements.  Now I know an Element is really an
interface, not a class.  How do I go about extending the Elements
interface so that I can add some customized methods to it?

Do I have to subclass the ElementImpl?  When I try this, and then attempt
to cast the Element returned by getDocumentElement to my subclass, I get
a java.lang.ClassCastException.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
