As an alternative to building fractured JS, check into using page.select, which allows you to use css-style selectors to locate dom elements. select can also be chained with methods like .any, .all, etc so that you can iterate over the elements that you find. In this case select(...).any(elem){elem.replace_html ''blah''} would allow you to replace the element if it exists. The advantage will be that the intention of the code will be much clearer when you read it later.
