This is what I use to recursively remove all Attributes specific to a
Child name or whole XML.
If anyone got a faster way I'd be glad to learn.

private function
findAndRemoveAttributeNames(xml:XML,find:String,in_tags_named:String=""):XML
{
var ok:Boolean=true;
if(in_tags_named != "" && xml.localName() != in_tags_named){
ok=false;
}
if([EMAIL PROTECTED] != null && ok){
delete [EMAIL PROTECTED];
}
var n:int=0;
var c:XML;
while(n < xml.children().length()){
c=xml.children()[n];
findAndRemoveAttributeNames(c,find);
n++;
}
return xml;
}
