[jdom-interest] Child number

[Todd O'Bryan]

I'm not 100% sure that this will work, but it seems like it should. 
Someone yell at me if it doesn't...

If you have the Element handy, you should just be able to call its 
detach() method. So if you have
something like

Element e;
if (e.getChildText().equals("B")) {
	e.detach();
}

that should work.
