JS - Remove a tag without deleting content

Question

I am wondering if it is possible to remove a tag but leave the content in tact? For example, is it possible to remove the SPAN tag but leave SPAN\'s content there?

var span=document.getElementsByTagName('span')[0]; // get the span
var pa=span.parentNode;
while(span.firstChild) pa.insertBefore(span.firstChild, span);

pa.removeChild(span);
