Question

I have a web site that uses JQuery and JQuery UI.

For some links, I didn’t want to use JQuery UI Theme’s colors, so I overrided using my own css.

It all worked until I used $("#a_about").removeAttr("href") to remove the href from the anchors (so that the link wouldn’t actually work, I just want to grab the click action)
to my surprise, it also removed the color which my css applied, and returned to the color which JQuery UI Theme applied previously.

I tried to change the element on which the color is applied (the anchor itself, the parent container, etc…) but nothing helped.
Thanks…

Instead of:

$("#a_about").removeAttr("href")

Use:

$("#a_about").attr("href","javascript:;")
