Hello, I have many difficulties to manipulate xml routines. I'm working with python 2.4.4 and I cannot change to a more recent one, then I use dom package, why not. In the following code, I'm trying unsuccessfully to remove a particular node. It seems to me that it should be basic, but it's not. Thanks for your help
