Removing html tags

[Jeroen]

Hi there,

First thank you for reading.

I have a question about the following is there a way to remove the
following HTML tags with javascript:

<div></div>
<span style="display: inline-block;">
</span>

From this piece of html will the page is loading.

<div></div>
<span style="display: inline-block;">
<div></div>
<select name="_QPage_QVerkoop_C" class="mrDropdown" style="margin-
left: 1em;">
<option style="" class="mrMultiple" value="inkoop">inkoop</option>
<option style="" class="mrMultiple" value="verkoop">verkoop</
option>
</select>
</span>

These are generated by an code "convertor" and I have no control over
them. Well not complete controle.
I can add some javascript so I hope thats my way out to let page look
"good/better" : )

Again thank you for reading and hopefully some tips for this issue.

Nee dat kan niet, Jeroen,
not while the page is loading.

You clould do this serverside [with serverside javascript], if you like,
with server.xmlhttp technique.

Or you could change the DOM when the page is loaded, having the same or
better results, depending on yourwishes, unknown to us.

Suppose "will" means "while", then no.

<div></div>
<span style="display: inline-block;">
<div></div>

I strongly suggest to use a better "code convertor" because this one
generates invalid markup. So even after the document has been loaded, there
is a good chance that you will end up with a non-uniform document tree among
user agents (built-in error correction is not unified).
