Question

My html:

<div class="example">
   <a id="link" href="http://www.google.com">Example</a>
</div>

jQuery

$('a#link').remove();

What I would like to do, is make the html look like this after the <a> tag is removed:

<div class="example">
  Example
</div>

How do I remove just the

<a> </a> 

part?

Alternate solution:

$("a#link").replaceWith($("a#link").text());
