How To Make Link Unclickable Using Css Or Jquery?

I have the following HTML.

• Solution 1:

  Different options:

  $('a[href="test.php"]').click(function(){
      returnfalse;
  });
  

  or

  $("static dynamic-children a.menu-item").click(function(){
      returnfalse;
  });
  

  You can also use event.preventDefault() which prevents the default/expected behaviour of a link. Use like:

  $("static dynamic-children a.menu-item").click(function(event){
      event.preventDefault();
  });
  

  Solution 2:

  Write return false

  $("a.menu-item").click(function(){
      returnfalse;
  });
  

  OR

  e.preventDefault()

  $("a.menu-item").click(function(e){
      e.preventDefault();
  });
  

  Solution 3:

  You can cancel the link behavior by firing preventDefault() on the click of this link:

  $("a.menu-item").click(function(evt){
      evt.preventDefault();
  });
