Remove all other list items except the one that is clicked using jQuery

I have list of this kind

<ul>
<li><div class="pname">Name1</div><div class="pid">ID1</div>...</li>
<li><div class="pname">Name2</div><div class="pid">ID2</div>...</li>
<li><div class="pname">Name3</div><div class="pid">ID3</div>...</li>
...
</ul>

If I click on any of the list item, rest all other list items should be removed. Can anyone suggest how I could do this?

    $(this).siblings().remove();
});

You can simply replace the ul contents with the clicked item:

$('ul li').click(function(ev){
    $(this).closest('ul').html($(this));
});​

Assuming this is the clicked li element:

$(this).siblings('li').not(this).remove();

If the click handler is bound to something inside the list item:

$(this).closest('li').siblings('li').not($(this).parents()).remove();
