[jQuery] How to delet br?

[elvisparsley]

My CMS creates <br clear="all"/><br/> automatically for content part
as you can see below. I want to delete these.


=====================

<div id="barneklar">
<br clear="all"/>
<br/>
<table .........

====================

I added
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#barneklar br').remove();

});
with jquery1.2.6.

but it works with firefox, but not in ie7.

What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks in advance.
