Removing ASP.NET Label text from JavaScript

I am removing some character from asp.net Label Text with JS, Its removing the text, but on code behind file its still having the text. Below is my code

function GetClientID(id, context) {
            var el = $("#" + id, context);
            if (el.length < 1)
                el = $("[id$=_" + id + "]", context);
            return el;
        }

 var emaillbl = GetClientID("lblEmail").attr("id");//lblEmail is ID of asp.net Label control

$("#" + emaillbl).html($("#" + emaillbl).html("-",''));

and on my code Behind

if(lblEmail.Text != "")//This condition always getting false
{
}
else
{
}

I have also tried with these but no luck

 $("#" + emaillbl).text($("#" + emaillbl).html("-",''));

 $("#" + emaillbl).val($("#" + emaillbl).html("-",''));

this is my Label

<asp:Label ID="lblEmail" runat="server"></asp:Label>

It is happening because the previous value is stored in the viewstate. Add the below mentioned attribute value pair to the control to disable view state for the control.

EnableViewState="false"

Use a <asp:HiddenField> and also write the changed value in that field!

In code behind change your label with the value from your hiddenfield!

to write the value using jquery use: 

<asp:HiddenField runat="server" ID="myHiddenField"/>

$('#<%= myHiddenField.ClientID %>').val(myNewValue);

Try this out:-

jQuery(function($){
  $("#<%=lblEmail.ClientID%>").remove();
});

And if you want to reuse your code then,

function GetClientID(id, context) {
            var el = $("#" + id, context);
            if (el.length < 1)
                el = $("[id$=_" + id + "]", context);
            return el;
        }

var emaillbl = GetClientID("lblEmail").attr("id");

$("#" + emaillbl).remove();
