completely removing href links with jquery
<p>I have built a jquery slider for my website. There are 3 slides in total and each slide contains 30-40 images linking through to a separate page.</p>

<p>I would like to completely remove the href links on the slides that are not active, and then add them in again when the slide is active. I have tried a few methods such as:</p>

<pre><code>$('a').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
});
</code></pre>

<p>But this only prevents the link clicking through and doesn't actually remove it.</p>

<p>Any suggestions on what i could do?</p>

<p>The reason i would like to do this is because Google doesn't like more than 100 internal links on a page and i have nearly double that!</p>

<p>Thanks, Dan</p>
