No, sorry wont do - you have to copy 10 essays (or
programs) in detention :). Chill out!

That would work - but would be costly (in
performance). You really dont want to rig up an
internal parser just to change the label tag data.

A simpler way is to find out which string node you
wish to change (digupStringNode(), searchFor(), or
quite simply, the exact index which you might happen
to know). 

Then,
StringNode newNode = new StringNode(
   newDataBuffer, 0, 0
);
To replace the child, you can either do something as
simple as,

getChildrenAsNodeArray()[posOfOldNode] = newNode; 

or
NodeList nodeList = getChildren();

and make a similar modification in the nodelist.

Somik
