Change existing javascript, hide/unhide thing

if you don't want that link to be clickable again, then why dont you simply remove the href attribute and onclick event handler from that link

you can either do
document.getElementById("linkId").href = null;
or
document.getElementById("linkId").removeAttribute("href",1);
check this link http://www.roseindia.net/javascript/javascript-removeattribute-method.shtml

you can later put the link back again using addAttribute (like second one) or simply assigning the attribute value later (like first one)

use a function like this...

function Toggle(buttonId)
{
      var button = document.getElementById(buttonId);
      if(button.disabled == false)
              button.disabled = true;
      else
              button.disabled = false;
}

Sorry, I didn't realize I made a mistake in my question.

I'm not using buttons, but images, like this:

<a href=javascript:unhide2('switch1');javascript:hide('switch2');><img src="images/tab_aanbiedingen.gif" /></a>

So the above solutions will not work since it is not a button. Any idea's ?

@Dutch_guy: Did you tried what i suggested?
I have not talked about buttons.

Thanks

Could you explain it a bit more, beacuse I know very little of Javascript...

I had simply suggested that you remove href/onclick attribute from the link.
in other words,
<a href="" onclick="">.....<!--Inside the link, it could be text, div, or an image -->... </a>

if you remove href and onclick attributes, then it will become.

<a>.....<!--Inside the link, it could be text, div, or an image -->... </a>

which is actually not a link.

Then later on you can add these attributes back if you want.

Thanks

Looks like this is what I need. Could you provide the script ? I have no idea how to implement this.

Please use the following as reference

<script>

   function removeLink(linkObj)
   {
         linkObj.href = null;
         linkObj.onclick = null;
   }

   function addLink( linkObj )
   {
       objLink.href = ""; \\add the href property
       objLink.onclick = ""; \\add the onclick event handler
   }

</script>

<a href="javascript:removeLink(this)" onclick="removeLink(this)">

I eventually changed the button to an image and went for animesxplosion's solution. Works great !
