this is the code

HTML

<li style="display:inline-block;">
                <ul class="cal-filter">
                    <li><a id="1W">1W</a></li>
                    <li><a id="1M">1M</a> </li>
                    <li><a id="3M">3M</a></li>
                    <li><a id="6M">6M</a></li>
                    <li><a id="1Y">1Y</a></li>
                    <li><a id="MTD">MTD</a></li>
                    <li><a id="YTD">YTD</a></li>
                </ul>
            </li>

What I have tried:

i just want to disable the li item based on the result of comparing two dates i.e., if difference between two dates is > 7, i must disable 1W.if > 30, i must disable 1M and soon...

$(".cal-filter li 1W").hide() is completely removing 1W. but I just want to disable it like some buttons we disable.

use disabled attribute instead of hide()

JavaScript

$(".cal-filter li #1W").attr("disabled","disabled");

since you know the Id you shall use selector directly.

JavaScript

$("#1W").attr('disabled','disabled')

moreover this will disable the Anchor Tag inside the li element. you should provide more information to give a precise answer.

Solution 3

Just by disabling the li will not work.
you will need to remove href attribute along with disabling the li

$("#1W").attr("disabled","disabled");
$("#1W").removeAttr('href');
