If you have multiple ul and want to empty specific ul then use id eg    lt ul id  randomName  gt      lt li gt 1 lt  li gt      lt li gt 2 lt  li gt      lt li gt 3 lt  li gt   lt  ul gt     lt script gt        randomName   empty     lt  script gt     x000D   x000D     input   click function     x000D        randomName   empty   x000D     x000D   lt script src  https   cdnjs cloudflare com ajax libs jquery 3 3 1 jquery min js  gt  lt  script gt  x000D   x000D   lt ul id  randomName  gt  x000D     lt li gt 1 lt  li gt  x000D     lt li gt 2 lt  li gt  x000D     lt li gt 3 lt  li gt  x000D   lt  ul gt  x000D   x000D   lt ul gt  x000D     lt li gt 4 lt  li gt  x000D     lt li gt 5 lt  li gt  x000D   lt  ul gt  x000D   lt input type  button  value  click me    gt  x000D   x000D   x000D
