How to remove "onclick" with JQuery?
attributes, event-handling, html, jquery, jquery-events
Solution
Old Way (pre-1.7):
$("...").attr("onclick", "").unbind("click");
New Way (1.7+):
$("...").prop("onclick", null).off("click");
(Replace ... with the selector you need.)
// use the "[attr=value]" syntax to avoid syntax errors with special characters (like "$")
$('[id="a$id"]').prop('onclick',null).off('click');
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<a id="a$id" onclick="alert('get rid of this')" href="javascript:void(0)" class="black">Qualify</a>
Problem
PHP code: ``` <a id="a$id" onclick="check($id,1)" href="javascript:void(0)" class="black">Qualify</a> ``` I want to remove the `onclick="check($id,1)` so the link cannot be clicked or "`check($id,1)` won't be fired. How can I do it with JQuery?
