[jdom-interest] query on JDOM 1.0 content replacement methods

[Per Norrman]

Hi,

your xpath expression selects certain upload-profile elements
at any level, but you test each selected element for being
a child of the document (which, btw, can have only one child
element).

You probably want to get the parent of each selected element
and replace its content.
