Remove any text not inside element tag on a web page with JavaScript?
To remove text, use the concept of remove(). Use filter to get the content not inside element tag.
Let’s say the following is our HTML −
<div><h1>Demo Program</h1></div> This is also Demo Program

<link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div><h1>Demo Program</h1></div>

<script>
$('body').contents().filter(function(){
return this.nodeType != 1;
