Subject:Help with trimming white space around removed element

 Can anyone give me a snippet of code that will remove the white space
around an element when that element is removed?  I am struggling to
make VTDNav.expandWhiteSpace() [1] and VTDNav.trimWhiteSpace() [2]
work.  I just need assistance with removing the white space ...
assume that I have already identified the element to remove and I am
removing it with the following code:

xm.remove( [3] vn.trimWhiteSpaces( [4] vn.expandWhiteSpaces( [5]
vn.getElementFragment() [6] ) ) );

I am using a custom version of VTD-XML ... v2.11 with the updated
VTDNav and XMLModifier versions from CVS ... which contains the
expandWhiteSpaces() and trimWhiteSpaces() methods.

Here is a sample XML ... I need to remove the empty element without
the 'activityTitle' attribute:

  
    
    
    
    
    
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
  
  
  This is what I am ending up with:

  
    
    
    
    
    
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
  
  
This is what I want to end up with:
  
  
    
    
    
    
  
  
    
    
    
    
  

Thank you for any assistance.
