How to delete xml content without deleting the content of the object?

Question

Hey, with the following code I am marking up a page item and deleting it's xml content:
text_value = text_area.xmlElements.add('text', current)
text_value.contents = '';
current is the current app.selection. The code works, with one downside: It also deletes the content of my text frame in my document. I only want to delete the xml content. Is this somehow possible?
Thanks in advance!!
Regards
Fred

Dear Fred,
Please use the below Code, this will helps you to achieve your target.
//============================== Script Starts ============================================//
var doc = app.documents[0];

__RemoveXMLElments(doc);
function __RemoveXMLElments(doc)
      var elementXpath = "//text";
        var myRuleSet = new Array (new __RemoveXMLElments_XPath(elementXpath));
      with(doc){
        var elements = xmlElements;
        __processRuleSet(elements.item(0), myRuleSet);
function __RemoveXMLElments_XPath (Txts)
        this.name = "RemoveTexts";
        this.xpath = Txts;  
        this.apply = function(myElement, myRuleProcessor){
            with(myElement){
                try{  
                        var myCnts = myElement.texts.everyItem();
                        myCnts.remove();
                  }catch(e)
