How To Disable Clicking Inside Div

For many reasons I need to disable clicking on certain content within a div element. Due to clicking ads attacks, for example. I still want it to be visible tho. Consider the follo

Solution 1:

The CSS property that can be used is:

pointer-events:none

!IMPORTANT Keep in mind that this property is not supported by Opera Mini and IE 10 and below (inclusive). Another solution is needed for these browsers.

jQuery METHOD If you want to disable it via script and not CSS property, these can help you out: If you're using jQuery versions 1.4.3+:

$('selector').click(false);

If not:

$('selector').click(function(){returnfalse;});

• Referenced from : jquery - disable click

---

You can re-enable clicks with pointer-events: auto; (Documentation)

Note that pointer-events overrides the cursor property, so if you want the cursor to be something other than the standard , your css should be place afterpointer-events.

Solution 2:

If you want it in pure CSS:

pointer-events:none;

Solution 3:

Try this:

pointer-events:none

Adding above on the specified HTML element will prevents all click, state and cursor options.

<divclass="ads"><buttonid='noclick'onclick='clicked()'>Try</button></div>

Solution 4:

You can use css

.ads{pointer-events:none}

or Using javascript prevent event

$("selector").click(function(event){
   event.preventDefault();
});

Solution 5:

If using function onclick DIV and then want to disable click it again you can use this :

for (var i=0;i<document.getElementsByClassName('ads').length;i++){
    document.getElementsByClassName('ads')[i].onclick = false;
}

Example : HTML

<div id='mybutton'>Click Me</div>

Javascript

document.getElementById('mybutton').onclick = function () {
    alert('You clicked');
    this.onclick = false;
}
