Remove "empty" paragraphs with jQuery
<p>My writers have a bad habit of creating empty paragraphs. (I.e., paragraphs that have nothing inside them, like: </p>

<pre><code>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Is there a jQuery function that removes "empty" paragraphs. Here's what I've tried: </p>

<pre><code>$('p').remove(":contains(' ')"); // nope! bad logic, all p's have empty spaces 

$("p:empty").remove() // nope, doesn't work, doesn't remove any p's
</code></pre>

<p>Anything else I should try? </p>
