Reply To: Script to search for an XML tag and remove it

<pre class=”brush: javascript”>
var main = function() {
var doc = app.properties.activeDocument,
root, xes, n;
if ( !doc ) return;
root = doc.xmlElements[0];
xes = root.evaluateXPathExpression ( “.//myTagName” );
n = xes.length;

while ( n– ) xes[n].remove();

}

var u;

app.doScript ( “main()”,u,u,UndoModes.ENTIRE_SCRIPT, “The Script” );

Where “myTagName” is the name of the tag you want to remove. Be aware that with tagged texts, only the text object will ne removed while the container will remain.
