Hi Mark,
Make sure you return false so that the link doesn't trigger the
default behavior (which is to go to the url):
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").click(function() {
alert("Hello world!");
return false;
});
});

Hi All,
I am a new person to the world of jQuery.
I am having a problem in my first program only. Please tell me what is
wrong over here.
My code is :
<html><head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").click(function() {
alert("Hello world!");
});
});
</script></head>
<body>
<a href="http://google.com";>google</a>
</body>
</html>
Output which I am getting is :
{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss
\fcharset0 Arial;}} {\*\generator Msftedit
5.41.15.1507;}\viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs20 \par \par \par \par \tab
google\par \par \par }
