    jquery can't find text, just elements. You'll have to instead find elements that have said text, then use javascript string manipulation to do the work. Commented Oct 28, 2013 at 22:10

Try using :contains() to find each item, and then looping through to remove the /:

$("li:contains('/')").each(function(){
    $(this).text($(this).text().replace(' /',''));
});

You'll need to modify for variances, but based on the HTML shown this will do the trick.
