This is the html:

This is the jquery I'm trying to use:

$("li").remove(":contains('undefined')");

Thanks for the help!

Answer 1

I'd do it this way :

$('li').filter(function() {
    return $(this).find('span').text().indexOf('undefined') != -1;
}).remove();

Answer 2

Try:

$("li span:contains('undefined')").remove();

It works in my head :)

EDIT This will remove the LI:

$("li span:contains('undefined')").parent().parent().remove();

Answer 3

You can try:

$("li:contains('undefined')").remove();
