[jQuery] Removing an emptied paragraph from the DOM
<html>
<body>
Hello folks,
I have an application which removes an image from within a paragraph,
wraps that image in a div and places it in front of the
paragraph.
I now want to remove that paragraph.
Why doesn't the following use of remove() not achieve my objective?
I've tested the length - it is 0, yet the remove doesn't happen.
Thanks, Bruce
<tt>var parnt =
$(this).parent();<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>//the parent p
tag containing the image to be processed
$(this).insertBefore(p).wrap("<div class='buggybox clearfix'
id='g" + i +"'></div>");
if (parnt.length=0) {
<x-tab> </x-tab>
parnt.remove();
}</body>
</html>
