I have a XML file
<rows>
<head>
<beforeInit>
<call command="attachHeader">
<param>#text_filter,#text_filter,#text_filter,#text_filter,#text_filter,#text_filter</param>
</call>
</beforeInit>
<afterInit>
<call command="enablePaging">
<param>recinfoArea</param>
</call>
</afterInit>
<column width="100" align="center" type="ro" sort="server" color="undefined" id="Id">Id</column>
<column width="100" align="center" type="ro" sort="server" color="undefined" id="NazovProjektu">NazovProjektu</column>
</head>
</rows>
I'd like to remove the beforeInit and afterInit elements.
I tried
xml.Elements().Where(e=>e.Name == "beforeInit" || e.Name == "afterInit").Remove();
but no luck.

if you want to delete every occurence of beforeInit or afterInit you could use
xml.Descendants().Where(e=>e.Name == "beforeInit" || e.Name == "afterInit").Remove();
(descendants instead of elements). elements() returns a list of direct child nodes, whereas descendants returns every node.

If xml is a XElement, try:
xml.Element("head").Elements().Where(e=>e.Name == "beforeInit" || e.Name == "afterInit").Remove();
Otherwise, if it's an XDocument:
xml.Root.Element("head").Elements().Where(e=>e.Name == "beforeInit" || e.Name == "afterInit").Remove();
The way it is now, it's set up to look for the sub elements in <rows>, not <head>. In other words Elements() only returns the direct children of a node. If you want all the descendants, no matter what level, you want Descendants().
