Hi,
I need to remove a child with a certain specific
attribute value, e.g.
I've got the following file:
<aaa>
<bbb value1="12" value2="12" value3="12">
<ccc time="9"/>
</bbb>
<bbb value1="17" value2="23" value3="57">
<ccc time="4"/>
</bbb>
<bbb value1="24" value2="200" value3="94">
<ccc time="2"/>
</bbb>
</aaa>
Now suppose I want to remove the child <bbb> of <aaa>
that has an attribute value1=17. So in this case that
would mean removing the 2nd element. How do I remove
an element by specifying not only it's name but also
the value of a certain attribute?
removechild(...) only deletes then first child with
the specified name and namespace.
Would appreciate a short example...
Thanks for the help!
