I have a string in JavaScript and it includes an a tag with an href. I want to remove all links and the text. I know how to just remove the link and leave the inner text but I want to remove the link completely.

For example:

var s = check this out <a href='http://www.google.com'>Click me</a>. cool, huh?;

I would like to use a regex so I'm left with:

s = check this out. cool, huh?;
