Both event.preventDefault() and event.returnValue = false don't work in Firefox

问题

I have tried these to snippets of codes, the first one works in IE and Chrome, the second one works in Chrome only, but both of them don't work in Firefox. What I want is to stop the page from going to other pages via links

$('.album a').click(function(){
    event.returnValue = false;
    //other codes
})

$('.album a').click(function(){
    event.preventDefault();
    //other codes
})

Edit: This snippet from Ian worked for me

$('.album a').click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    //other codes
});

You need to provide the Event parameter:

$('.album a').click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    //other codes
});

You don't need to deal with returnValue, as jQuery normalizes the method to work across browsers, by only calling preventDefault.

Note how the handler in the docs show this eventObject as the parameter passed to it: http://api.jquery.com/click/

And note how the Event object has the preventDefault method: http://api.jquery.com/category/events/event-object/

回答2:

Your callback signature does not register the event argument. Therefor your callbacks do not have access to the event object, and cannot prevent it.

$('.album a').click(function(event){
    event.returnValue = false;
    //other codes
});

$('.album a').click(function(event){
    event.preventDefault();
    //other codes
});

Try changing your code to the following:

$('.album a').click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    return false;
})
