javascript - dom method for removing nodes (See related posts)

You can remove existing nodes as well as add new ones. The removeChild method allows any node to remove one of its child nodes. Simply pass a reference to the node you wish to remove. Any text or elements within the node being removed will be removed along with it.

<script type="text/javascript">

function removeBElm(){

    var para = document.getElementById("example2");

    var boldElm = document.getElementById("example2B");

    var removed = para.removeChild(boldElm);

}
</script>



<p id="example2"><a href="#" onclick="removeBElm(); return false;">Click this link</a> to see the above script in action.</p>
