Well try to parse it, once you've loaded it up into an object, you can manipulate it however you like.

How to parse it, can be found here.

Try if something like this works (using jQuery 1.5 or newer):

var xml = '<note> <to>Tove</to> <from> <primary>hyd</primary> <secondary>delhi</secondary> </from> <heading>Reminder</heading> <body>Dont forget me this weekend! </body></note > ';

var parsedXml = $.parseXML(xml);

$(parsedXml).find('form').remove();
