How can I remove an attribute with jQuery?

attributes, javascript, jquery

Solution

All good used this:

$('#WindowOpen').toggle(
    function()
    {
        $('#login_uname, #login_pass').attr("disabled","disabled");     
    },
    function()
    {
        $('#login_uname, #login_pass').removeAttr("disabled");      
    });

Problem

I can't seem to get `removeAttr` to work, I'm using the example I saw on the jQuery site. Basically `onclick` I add the attribute to disable a field (which works just fine) but when the user clicks again it should enable the field in question. I used alerts to make sure the else block is being fired, so I know that's not it. Code: ``` $('#WindowOpen').click(function (event) { event.preventDefault(); $('#forgot_pw').slideToggle(600); if('#forgot_pw') { $('#login_uname, #login_pass').attr('disabled','disabled'); } else { $('#login_uname, #login_pass').removeAttr('disabled'); } }); ``` Thanks.
