With jquery remove both a span and the next 2 characters

Question

I am trying to remove an element from a volusion page where I don't have access to large parts of the code. I can remove some stuff using jquery, but there are elements outside of the span I can't get rid of.

<span class="PageText_L329n">Quantity in Stock</span>:6<meta itemprop='availability' content='InStock'>

I can use

$("span.PageText_L329n").remove();

to get rid of the "Quantity in Stock" section, but the :6 doesn't have its own container. The parent div that this is sitting in has a lot of other stuff in it I don't want to touch. Is there a way to remove this span and the following several characters? Or separately select the :6 and remove it without a container?

Nope, that didn't remove anything. – user2592238 Jul 17 '13 at 16:48
Yea, it works there, but when I put it into they actual page, the same thing doesn't happen. – user2592238 Jul 17 '13 at 16:50
weird, it is removing it in firefox, but not in chrome – user2592238 Jul 17 '13 at 16:53
you are not adding in the page – Tushar Gupta - curioustushar Jul 17 '13 at 16:57
Thats weird. It shows up in firefox, but in chrome there is no span there. – user2592238 Jul 17 '13 at 17:00
check span again it doesn't show in any of my browsers(i.e,moz,chrome) – Tushar Gupta - curioustushar Jul 17 '13 at 17:02
I mande a small change to $("body:contains('Quantity in Stock')").each(function() { var text = $(this).text(); text = text.replace("Quantity in Stock:", ""); $(this).text(text); }); and it works – user2592238 Jul 17 '13 at 17:35
