Question

I hope someone can help. I have a link like this:

<a id='testOne' onclick="doTest('one'); return false;" title="Test One">One</a>

What I need is to have jQuery do the following:

• remove the title and disable the action of the link
• add back the title “Test One” and enable the action of the link

Are there any jQuery experts out there who could show me how to do this. Right now my jQuery knowledge is just selectors and almost nothing more. I hope I can get an example.

Thanks

Try this

//To remove the title and default action.
$("#testOne").attr("title", "").click(function(e){
  e.preventDefault();
}).attr("onclick", null);

//To reset the title and action
$("#testOne").attr("title", "Test One").click(function(e){
  doTest('one');
});
