Removing a dynamically created li from ul

Question

I\'m using jquery to add and remove bullets on the fly after the DOM is loaded.

Here\'s the code to add a bullet which works fine:

// add bullet
$(\'         


        

Answer 1

Don't you mean

$(this).parent().remove();

Also, you might want to consider

$(this).closest('li').remove();

That will go up the DOMtree until it finds a li, if you ever wrap your anchor in another element, the last example wont brake :)
