How to move around a XML node using C# or Linq

[JavedS]

I want to move a node around in XML

for e.g. if the string is

<strong><u><?cu stom_mark_start ForFormatCount= 'BU' Forunformatchar ='i' data='evolved'? >evolved<?custo m_format_mark_e nd ?></u></strong>

then the custom PI should be moved before the formatting tags

The Result should be

<?custom_mark_s tart ForFormatCount= 'BU' Forunformatchar ='i' data='evolved'? ><strong><u>evo lved</u></strong><?custom _format_mark_en d ?>

I need to do this for the Entire XML file.

Can we do it with Regex or Linq?

Not sure if this is useful for a string, but I would look into using the XmlDocument class to help me manage XML nodes.
