Here is a simple example of how to remove all links on a page and display Text instead

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
    <title>Remove Links</title>
    <script type="text/javascript"
    src="http://ajax.microsoft.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.4.2.min.js">
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(function() {
            $('#btnRemove').click(function() {
                $('a').contents().unwrap();
            });
        });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
