Hi Brian,
As I understand it, Element.elements() is a backed list of the child
elements of a given Element. In your example,
document.getRootElement().elements() (or 'elements("Row")') would then
give you a backed list of elements named Row that you should be able to
swap about as you please.
Is this what you were looking for?
