How to change HTML link's href property dynamically

Question

Hi I have a HTML link on my MVC3 View.

I want to change its href property each time user clicks it.

Answer 1

$(".tabs").click(function() {
   $(this).attr("href","newhref.com");
});

UPDATE

---

you can get attribute value like this,

$(this).attr("href")  //will return '#educationDetails'

so you can check that value like this,

$(".tabs").click(function() {
  if ($(this).attr("href") == "#tab1")
      $(this).attr("href","#tab2");
  else if ($(this).attr("href") == "#tab2")
      $(this).attr("href","#tab1");
});

UPDATE-2

If you just want to change #tab1 to #tab2, not reverse. you can also do it like this way,

$('a.tabs[href="#tab1"]')​.click(function() {
    $(this).attr("href","#tab2");​
})​;​
