The Range.deleteContents() removes the contents of the Range from the Document.
Unlike Range.extractContents, this method does not return a DocumentFragment containing the deleted content.
range.deleteContents()
range = document.createRange();
range.selectNode(document.getElementsByTagName("div").item(0));
range.deleteContents();
