Examples

The following example creates an element with attributes and child elements. It then calls this method to remove the attributes. The child elements remain.

XElement root = new XElement("Root",  
    new XAttribute("Att1", 1),  
    new XAttribute("Att2", 2),  
    new XAttribute("Att3", 3),  
    new XElement("Child1", 1),  
    new XElement("Child2", 2),  
    new XElement("Child3", 3)  
);  
root.RemoveAttributes();  
Console.WriteLine(root);  

Dim root As XElement = _   
    <Root Attr1="1" Attr2="2" Attr3="3">  
        <Child1>1</Child1>  
        <Child2>2</Child2>  
        <Child3>3</Child3>  
     </Root>  

root.RemoveAttributes()  
Console.WriteLine(root)  

This example produces the following output:
