jQuery move node out of its parent

Question

I have this code:

  

    
      
      SOME TEXT
    
  
         


        

Answer 1

Try this:

$('.list > li > a > img').each(function() {
    $(this).insertBefore($(this).parent());
})

EDIT I came up with a cleaner version:

$('.list > li > a > img').each(function() {
    $(this).parent().before(this);
})
