The event.preventDefault() method stops the default action of an element from happening. For example, Prevents a link from following the URL.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js">
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("a").click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://w3schools.com/">Go to W3Schools.com</a>
<p>The preventDefault() method will prevent the link above from following the URL.</p>
</body>
