javascript - preventDefault stops window.location.href from working -


my site has 2 ads on it, 1 of them uses script parses links on site , preventdefault() on them... makes impossible me use preventdefault() on links since can done once... in past i've been able work around using return false. reason doesn't work jquery ui autocomplete function though (see code below).

if turn off ads script works fine. otherwise reloads page because return false; doesn't seem work...

script cannot change:

$(document).ready(function() {       $('a').on('click', function(e) {         e.preventdefault();         // stuff     }); )};

my script:

$search.autocomplete({   source: function(request, response){     $url = "suggestions/";     $.get($url, {data:request.term}, function(data){              response($.map(data, function(item) {         return {                             label: item.movie_name,             id: item.movie_id         }         }))     }, "json");   },   minlength: 2,   datatype: "json",   cache: true,   focus: function(event, ui) {     return false;   },   select: function(event, ui) {     window.location.href = ('/id/'+ ui.item.id +'/'+ ui.item.label +'/');     return false;   } });

i found solution works:

  select: function(event, ui) {      $('.ui-autocomplete a').attr('href', '/id/'+ ui.item.id +'/'+ ui.item.label +'/');        }

explaination: jquery-ui-autocomplete function creates list of links ()-tags, use preventdefault() stop browser going through href address, since in case not possible tried using return false instead since doesn't work either in case figured, why not change link-tags href correct url instead , not halt action, works!
