Re^3: how to remove an empty line from a xml file??

Much of Re^5: error : can't locate object method "getAttribute" via package XML::DOM::NodeList still applies, except now it's even code you've written yourself already, to remove a child node. Maybe add to that code more code to remove other child nodes.

hi corion, that empty line is another child of $Item element I understood that but it is a XML::DOM::TEXT element. I don't know how to remove text nodes? don't write any code for me (y) but could you please tell me how to do that `to remove a node I do : $parent_name=removeChild($node_name)but to remove text node what should I write in place of $node_name`	[reply] [d/l]

In the code you already wrote yourself, you use the method `->removeChild`. This method is just as applicable for text nodes as it is for other nodes. Maybe now is a really good moment to familiarize yourself with XML and the DOM?	[reply] [d/l]
