I have some jQuery that runs on a page. As a short-term fix I want to remove the code within the tags (containing the JS), that are on the page so that this jQuery does NOT run.

Is there any way that I can do this, or stop the code from running? I want to revert back to the typical DOM state, not the manipulated one…

Edit:

I have a script tag on the page that runs some javascript.

Due to certain limitations, I can’t simply remove this – I have to include a javascript file to remove this script tag / OR prevent this javascript from running.

I want to revert back to how the page should look without having been manipulated by the script tag that is already on the page.

    If you can only include a javascript file, you could try re-declaring the jquery object so it can’t run:

    jQuery = null;
$ = null;

    That would kill jQuery providing it’s loaded after. This however would probably cause of lot of javascript errors. On that trail of thought, you could just plug in some broken JS and it would stop jQuery from executing if it’s before the jQuery stuff.
