What are you using to access the XML? How are you storing it?

Did you know: That by counting the rings on a tree trunk, you can tell how many other trees it has slept with.

Assuming you are retrieving this in an XmlDocument, just call DocumentElement.RemoveChild and pass in the node that you are interested in removing (you actually have to retrieve this node using something like XPath for instance).

If you're using .NET 3.5+

XDocument doc = XDocument.Load( "file.xml" );
var authors = ( from n in doc.Descendants( "author" )
select n );
if (authors != null) {
authors.Remove();
doc.Save( "file.xml" );
}
