Неустранимая ошибка: вызов функции-члена hasAttribute () при значении null

Я изменил некоторые из найденных здесь искателей, и все работало нормально, но у меня есть некоторые проблемы. Первая - это фатальная ошибка: вызов функции-члена hasAttribute () с нулевым значением. Как я могу это обойти? Первая запись всегда генерируется пустой, я тоже не знаю почему. Другое дело, что мой XML перезаписывается после каждой записи вместо добавления дополнительных элементов.

Большое спасибо за помощь!
