How do I remove empty p tags with jQuery?

The platform I\'m building a website on produces empty p tags in wysiwyg mode. How can I take these out?

Something like this, perhaps...

Thanks "mu is too short",

I've tried your code It works but I need to wrap it in jQuery(document).ready(function() {});

The full code worked for me is:

jQuery(document).ready(function() {
    jQuery('p').each(function() {
        var $this = jQuery(this);
        if($this.html().replace(/\s| /g, '').length == 0) {
            $this.remove();
        }
    });
});

I don't know why this happens, My jQuery/JS is not so good, I'm learning it ;).

Hope this help another person like me.

Thanks.
