Need help traversing an unordered list with jQuery

[logictrap]

How do I access just the titles (ie 'Title 1', 'Title 2')? Every method I tried also includes the content.

I tried using: not('[li]") & parent()

This is an example list structure:

<ul id="mylist">
<li> Title 1
<ul>
<li>Content 1</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Title 2
<ul>
<li>Content 2</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Title 3
<ul>
<li>Content 3</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
