To remove them you could use $(function() { $("br").remove(); });
but to find where they are is more difficult, as you could end up removing key elements like the <head> tag itself. If it's placing it where you don't want it to, maybe the script needs tweaking? Could you possibly post it here, or even a link would be better? That would enable me to help you a bit easier. Mike However in order to detect where they are in the document is more difficult.
