Re: removing xml child element

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                version="1.0">

 <xsl:template match="/ | @* | node()">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="Shear">
    <!-- do nothing -->
  </xsl:template>

I now this might seem simple but this is my first attempt in xslt
and I having problems finding an example in deleting a child element

here is my xml example:

<MTSScene Version="311" >
<MTSSceneParms RenderMode="LightTexture" BlendShadow="1" EdgeBias="1" />
<MTSCamera OrbitDist="4" >
<Rotate x="20.62647" y="-16.04278" z="0" />
<ViewLocation x="0" y="0" z="4" />
</MTSCamera>
<MTSInstance Name="Simple_0" >
<Transform>
<Scale x="0.64708" y="0.74812" z="0.93365" />
<Shear xy="0" yz="-0" xz="-0" />
<Rotate x="-2.25967" y="-2.21257" z="64.06983" />
<Position x="0" y="-0.38" z="0" />
</Transform>
<MTSGeometry Name="MTSSimple_0" MultiUV="0" Type="MTSBox" />
</MTSInstance>
</MTSScene>


I would like remove the child element <shear> and all its attribute

thanks
Miguel
