XML & ColdFusion

[John Barrett]

I have a few questions about using xml and CF.
My code works fine, but I would like to know:
how can I update the data with a form. For example I want to add a new student, so I put a form with the same names as the xml data,which I am fine with, but I am lost on how to write the data to add to the already xml file?

Thanks so much,
Johnny

<!--- my code--->
<cfxml variable="students">
<school>
        <name>John Barrett</name>
        <school>University of Hawaii</school>
        <department>New Media</department>
</school>
</cfxml>
<cffile action="write" file="#getDirectoryFromPath(getTemplatePath())#students.xml" output="#students#">

<cfdump var="#students#">
