Code Igniter - Anchor Reutrn False?

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to return false with using the anchor function in CI, as it's sending me to another page, rather than loading ajax.

Here's my code:

<li id="addclient"><?php echo anchor('site_add_client', 'Clients', array('onclick'=> "content_ajax_client()")); ?>  </li>

Thanks

Answer 1

Just add return false in with the onclick...

<?php echo anchor('site_add_client', 'Clients', array('onclick'=> "content_ajax_client(); return false")); ?>  </li>

Et voila...

Alternatively to Robimp's answer, you could return false inside your js function.

function content_ajax_client(){
    //your code here
    return false;
}
