javascript - Find Every Instance of " " in a page and remove it with jQuery

I'm working within a template using the Cargo Collective platform and it adds unecessary   tags inside the body of my document.

How can I write a line or two of jQuery to search for every   tag on my page and remove them, or replace them with nothing?

2 I think you should have a look at jQuery Selectors. – user1823761 Commented Jun 1, 2013 at 6:55

No doubt, Austins answer is perfect, but if you want, you can also use display: none;

br {
   display: none;
}

Demo

You can use the selector br and .remove(), like so.

$('br').remove();

JSFiddle

Additionally ,for in a specific div or element

#some_element br {
  display: none;
}
