Question

I have a variable which is the HTML of a UL, I was wondering if I can remove a few things from the variable but not the actual HTML of the UL..??

EG

<ol class='sortable'>
    <li class="menu-item">
        <div>Allure</div>
        <ol>
            <li class="menu-item" style="display: list-item;">
                <div><a href="/_webapp_4002836/Allure-Gallery">Energy-Drink</a>      </div>
            </li>
        </ol>
    </li>

    <li class="menu-item disabled">
        <div>Bitten SJP</div>
        <ol>
            <li class="menu-item" style="display: list-item;">
                <div><a href="#">Bitten</a></div>
            </li>
        </ol>
    </li>
</ol>

My JQuery does this

var sortableList = $(".sortable").html();

is there any way to do this

var sortableList = $(".sortable").html("MINUS ALL CLASSES ".DISABLED");

Thanks for any answers

If you’re trying to select all of a menu-item that is directly from .sortable that isn’t disabled:

$(".sortable > .menu-item:not(.disabled)")
