How can I remove an element in Javascript without jQuery
<p>Im trying to remove a Div from the DOM via an <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> tag nested within it. </p>

<p>I guess what I am looking for is the pure Javascript version of jQuery's 
    <code>$('div').remove()</code>
Here's the html set up</p>

<p><code>&lt;div&gt; &lt;a href = "#" onClick = "w/e()"&gt;Click me to remove the parent div&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</code></p>

<p>Thanks ahead of time. :D</p>
