Here is the code:

$oDelete = explode(",", $HTTP_GET_VARS["nodeId"]);
$intDelete = count($oDelete);

$xmlDoc = @xmldocfile($xmlDataPath) or die("Couldn't get XML data");
$nodeRoot = $xmlDoc->root();
$childNodes = $nodeRoot->children();
echo $childNodes;
for ($i=0; $i < $intDelete; $i++){
	$childNodes[$oDelete[$i]]->unlink();
}

$strWrite = domxml_dumpmem($xmlDoc);
$xmlFile = fopen($xmlDataFile,"w");
fwrite($xmlFile,$strWrite);
fclose($xmlFile);					
exit;

OK, when $childNodes[$oDelete[$i]]->unlink();
gets executed it starts a system process php.exe.  This process never
ends.  It deletes the node and writes the file but the process keeps
running.  If you delete another node by running unlink() again it starts
a new php.exe process and that one keeps running.

Any ideas of other ways to remove a node from a xml file??

Please try a snapshot or CVS version if possible.  The unlink code has been modified in CVS and will be in the 4.2 version.
