Stop default behaviour from happening.
In the second example we open a jQuery UI dialog instead of going to a different url when clicking on an A-tag with an id of "myLink".

Expand | Embed | Plain Text

Copy this code and paste it in your HTML 
  1. function(evt) {
  2.   evt.preventDefault();
  3. };
  4.  
  5. $('#myLink').click(function(evt){
  6.   evt.preventDefault();
  7.   $('#myLink').dialog('open');
  8. });
