Method XmlNode():removeChilds() Foundation

Removes child nodes with a given name.

Syntax 
:removeChilds( <cName> ) --> self
Parameters
<cName>
A character string with the name of the child nodes which are to be removed. The node name must be specified as a local name, that is, as the node name without a namespace qualifier.
Return

:removeChilds() returns the object executing the method.

Description

The method :removeChilds() removes all child nodes with a given name. If only a specific child node is to be removed, the method :removeChild() may be used instead.

The node name specified in <cName> is case-insensitive. This behavior is Xbase++-specific. Although it does not conform to the XML standard, the case-insensitive behavior is in line with how names and symbols are treated in the Xbase++ language.
