Remove tags

Use this procedure to remove the XML tag from the current element.

This procedure removes the tag on the element that immediately surrounds the cursor location. It is only available if removing the element's tag does not invalidate the document. The element does not have to be selected.

  1. Open your topic in the XMetaL editor.
  2. Place your cursor in the text whose tag you want to remove.
  3. Then, either:
    • Press CTRL+ALT+R.
    • Right-click and select Remove Tags.
    • From the menu bar, click XML Document > Remove Tags.
The innermost tags are removed from the text.
