JQuery :: Remove Rows From Tables According To Some Rules?

I have a table like this:

<table>
<tr class="item_collection_begin">
<td colspan="3"></td>
</tr>

[Code]....

To sum it up I have a rows that acts a header for a collection of item (class="item_collection_begin). Is there some way to click on a button and then all the items and their header (item_collection_begin), and their footer (item_collection_end, this is not mandatory that they have such one) are all hidden if there is no item in the collection where the cell (amount) is bigger than zero? I have got it to work for all the rows with items: $('#test .amount').filter(function (index) { return $(this).html() == 0; }).parent().remove(); But this does not hide item_collection_begin (and perhabs item_collection_end).
