Hi ,

I have a image with has a a href wrapped arround it.

When client clicks on the image which returns same page, i wish to turn the a href off.

How do i do this

cheers

so then what is the function of the click?
If it's the same page that's being loaded, what changes in it that justifies the href?

I dont think that matters at all!

This is basically fucntionality from a drop down menu.

when i click on one image, child links are then revealed.

I simply , when these child links are returned, want to switch the a href off.

If it is the same page that should be returned, why don't you make a copy of it, only without any a href's this time, and link the image to that page instead? Problem sorted without JavaScript warnings in IE

because i dont wont to send a request.

Just attach the click event to the image? That's the simpler way, get rid of the anchor all together.

Otherwise: If you attach a click event to the anchor and 'return false;' it will prevent the link from going through.

Simple.. Lose the href alltogether and instead attach an onclick event to the image.
In the click handler, you can then remove the event from the image.
