please suggest me to solve this major problem

Answer 1

Well, I you want to deactivate you could do something like

var activated = false;
$(".className").click(function(e){
 if(!activated){
   e.preventDefault();
 }
}

But you might wanna be a bit more specific about what you want to do.

Answer 2

Do you want to hide/show the link? If so, you can use toggle.

$('a.add').toggle();

There's also hide() and show().
