This tests blocking a link '<a>' on a page. The link below looks normal, but if you click on it, an alert appears and you do not go anywhere.
Code is:
<p><a class="content_href" href="//jquery.com/">jQuery</a></p>
<script src="/scripts/jquery-1.7.2.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("a.content_href").click(function(event){
alert("As you can see, the link no longer took you to jquery.com");
event.preventDefault();
});
$("a.content_href").addClass("test");
$("a.content_href").click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
$(this).hide("slow");
});
});
</script>
