I’m removing an element using remove() (it’s a <li> with display: inline; set, although the same problem seems to exist with display: block;), and while the element is removed from the page the space it was occupying isn’t.
Is this standard behaviour and so should I be using another method instead? The <li> contains a form field, so I’m wanting to ideally not have this form field sent through to the server – hence using remove() instead of hide().
What you are experiencing is not standard behavior. When removing element from DOM, occupied space should be also removed
