How to remove br tags from a paragraph through javascript

Issue

How can i remove all <br> tags from a paragraph using javascript(only). This is my HTML code from which i'm trying to remove:

<p>
    Aenean odio dui, facilisis ut convallis in, congue quis mi. Etiam eu tristique metus. Vivamus id orci ac sapien porttitor pulvinar ut et dui. Phasellus porttitor quam dictum magna faucibus sollicitudin ac sit amet lectus.<br>
    <br><br>
    <a href="#"><i class="icon-facebook-sign" style="color:#; font-size:px; "></i></a><br>
    <a href="#"><i class="icon-twitter-sign" style="color:#; font-size:px; "></i></a><br>
    <a href="#"><i class="icon-google-plus-sign" style="color:#; font-size:px; "></i></a><br>
    <a href="#"><i class="icon-phone-sign" style="color:#; font-size:px; "></i></a><br>
    <a href="#"><i class="icon-pinterest-sign" style="color:#; font-size:px; "></i></a>
</p>

I know how to remove it using jquery. But i want to remove it through pure javascript.

Solution

Can you try this,

 var e = document.getElementsByTagName("p")[0];
 e.innerHTML = e.innerHTML.replace('<br>', '');
