How to change the href for a hyperlink using jQuery

I have an anchor tag for which the href=”” like so
<a class="SwitchAccountLink" href=""></a>. I want to override this using jQuery and provide a different href. Is it possible to override the inline href of an anchor tag?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You can use jQuery’s .attr() function to modify specific attributes of your elements.

$("a.SwitchAccountLink").attr('href',NEW_URL);

This code will replace all anchor tags with the SwitchAccountLink class with NEW_URL.

If you want to only change specific links, you might have to provide a more unique id attribute or an additional class that groups all the links.
