Hi Utsav,
Lists in DOM are required by the standard to be "live".
So if you have a parent node whose children are (a,b,c), then
NodeList l = parent.getChildNodes;
// l = (a,b,c)
Node child1 = l.item(1);
l.removeChild(child1);
then suddenly l = (b,c)
So iterating over the list using an int as an index into the list is a
really bad idea :-). Because childList is changing, your code below is
actually copying and deleting every 2nd child of the parent.
try
while (!childList.empty())
{
// get childList[0]
// copy & delete from parent
}
Regards,
Simon
