Remove Parent of an element

[H Melua]

Hello ladies and gentlemen

I want to add an existing child-element as a root-element in another file... but i get this error

The Content already has an existing parent "brd"

So i want to know how do i remove the parent of that child element so i can make it a root element...

Thanks :thumb:

Look at the javadocs for the org.w3c.dom.Node interface - particularly the cloneNode( true ) method. I suspect that is what you want but have not actually tried it.
