javascript:void(0) meaning



We often use code like javascript:void(0), so what does javascript:void(0) mean in JavaScript?

The most critical thing in javascript:void(0) is the void keyword. void is a very important keyword in JavaScript. This operator specifies that an expression should be evaluated but not return a value.

The syntax format is as follows:

<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
void func()
javascript:void func()

或者

void(func())
javascript:void(func())
//-->
</script>
</head>

The following code creates a hyperlink, and nothing will happen when the user clicks it.

##href="#" and href="javascript:void( 0)"The difference

# contains a location information, and the default anchor is #top, which is the top of the web page.

And javascript:void(0) only represents a dead link.

When the page is very long,

# will be used to locate the specific location of the page. The format is: # + id.

If you want to define a dead link, please use javascript:void(0).
