Using nokogiri how do I remove all elements with a certain classname

Question

I'm experimenting with Ruby and Nokogiri.

I've figured out how to open a local html document and select nodes by classname:

require 'rubygems'                                                                                               
require 'nokogiri'                                                                                               

doc = Nokogiri::HTML(open("file"))                                                                          


puts doc.css('a.target')

How then do I dump the document without the nodes I've selected for?

Should be:

doc.css('a.target').remove
puts doc.at('html').to_s
