Setting href attribute at runtime

by

To get or set an attribute of an HTML element, you can use the element.attr() function in jQuery.

To get the href attribute, use the following code:

var a_href = $('selector').attr('href');

To set the href attribute, use the following code:

$('selector').attr('href','http://example.com');

In both cases, please use the appropriate selector. If you have set the class for the anchor element, use '.class-name' and if you have set the id for the anchor element, use '#element-id'.
