When I try to delete an item from the XMLList, it removes the item from the XMLList, and from the item's original parent node (example below). Is there any easy way to delete a single node from an XMLList without destroying other references to that node? Is this the intended behavior of the delete operator? - Dan Freiman var xml:XML = "<root><value1/><value2/><value3/></root>" var partialChildList:XMLList = new XMLList(); partialChildList += xml.value1[0]; partialChildList += xml.value2[0]; delete partialChildList[0]; // actual results trace(xml); // "<root><value2/><value3></root>" // value1 is missing trace(partialChildList); // <value2/> // desired results: trace(xml); // "<root><value1/><value2/><value3></root>" // unaltered trace(partialChildList); // <value2/>
