condense works for me. I can't say my testing was extensive though. But thanks. – Jourkey Jan 09 '10 at 21:54

@James Wiseman: +1; thanks for the link to jQuery Condense plugin! I put up its demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/Sk8erPeter/sqDx8/1/. So people who would like to see how it works before they download it, can even try it here. – Sk8erPeter Dec 27 '11 at 20:12

Badonkatrunc supports nested content in a non-destructive manner.

(Full disclosure: I am the developer of the plugin.)

This looks great. Using it now without a hitch. Thanks! – Cory Nov 20 '12 at 16:42
It is very nice plugin and it would be great if it was not extremely CPU intensive. See https://github.com/plexipixel/Badonkatrunc/issues/2 – Chris Cinelli May 31 '13 at 17:45
