I want to delete the child depending on the "name" attribute. Is there a way to do this ? i tried to do this with DOM but didnt work. Also, i can get the specific child node using XPath. But then again, how do i delete it from the xml ?
If you look in the API documentation for the Node interface of DOM, you surely will find a method which deletes, or perhaps removes, a Node. Just scan down the list of methods until you find it. You would use that method once you have a reference to the node.
If you are still stuck, post your code and let's discuss it.
You will need to parse the XML using either jdom or java.xpath libraries and delete the node.
