How to Change the URL of an ASP.NET Hyperlink Control at runtime using jQuery

I recently was solving one of the queries at the forums where the user wanted to change the URL of a Hyperlink control at runtime. This task becomes very simple using jQuery as shown here



<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">


<head runat="server">


<title></title>


<script src="Scripts/jquery-1.2.6.js" type="text/javascript"></script>


<script type="text/javascript">


    $(document).ready(function() {


        $("[id$='HyperLink1']").attr("href", "http://www.devcurry.com");


    });    


</script>


</head>


<body>


<form id="form1" runat="server">


<div>   


    <asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1" runat="server"


    NavigateUrl="http://www.dotnetcurry.com">Favorite Site</asp:HyperLink>


</div>


</form>


</body>


</html>




This piece of code changes the url from dotnetcurry.com to devcurry.com
