This didn't work for me...
$('#test').text().remove();
with this HTML:
<div id="test" style="width:200px; height:100px; border:1px solid black;">test
test</div>
However, with this jQuery:
$('#test p:contains()').remove();
and this HTML:
<div id="test" style="width:200px; height:100px; border:1px solid
black;"><p>test test</p></div>
I could remove any text from the p inside the div. It did, however, remove the
<p> element, as well,
but it did leave the div in place. (I put a border around the div so I could
see if it remained...)
Seems like it should be easy to remove the text from within an element and
leave the element, itself,
but I couldn't figure out a way in a few minutes of experimenting and reading
the docs.
