removing childNodes using node.childNodes.forEach

Question

Traditionally, a suggested way of removing a node\'s children in Javascript is to do something like this:

while(node.firstChild) {
    node.removeChild(node.         


        

Answer 1

node.childNodes is a live collection, so when you remove a child from node in the forEach you mess with the iterator.
