You can't "delete" nodes in the DOM. You can only remove them from the tree. Doing so removes their entire subtree.
The usual solution is to remove them, and move the descendent nodes you want to keep into the position these ancestors were removed from. (Insert before what used to be the removed ancestor's next-sibling.) ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
