Description

If true,the Boolean deleteParent parameter removes of the metadata parent element.

As an example, calling this method on XML similar to that shown below with the parameters "approved", "no", and true would not only delete the "idinfo/timeperd/timeinfo/sngdate/caldate" element, but would also delete the parent "idinfo/timeperd/timeinfo/sngdate" element.
