title: Remove "empty" paragraphs with jQuery
body: <p>My writers have a bad habit of creating empty paragraphs. (I.e., paragraphs that have nothing inside them, like: </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a jQuery function that removes "empty" paragraphs. Here's what I've tried: </p>
  
  <pre><code>$('p').remove(":contains(' ')"); // nope! bad logic, all p's have empty spaces 
  
  $("p:empty").remove() // nope, doesn't work, doesn't remove any p's
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Anything else I should try? </p>
