Remove links to user profiles on list with javascript

Well, if you need remove links to user profiles, you can iterate all td-elements with class ms-vb-user using jQuery each function and remove a elements. Here is a little script:

$(document).ready(function() {
	$(".ms-vb-user a").each(function() { 
	   var text = $(this).text(); 
	   var span = document.createElement("span"); 
	   var user = document.createTextNode(text); 
	   span.appendChild(user); 
	   var parent = $(this).parent()\[0\]; 
	   parent.removeChild(this); 
	   parent.appendChild(span); 
	});
});
```EDIT 2012-02-05 A much more better way to do it is [to use replaceWith in jQuery](http://stackoverflow.com/a/2409163/632117 "See a similar question and an answer on StackOverflow"):

$(".ms-vb-user a").each(function() { $(this).replaceWith(this.childNodes); });
