How to disable HTML links

by

I have a link button inside a <td> which I have to disable. This works on IE but not working in Firefox and Chrome.
Structure is – Link inside a <td>. I cannot add any container in the <td> (like div/span)

I tried all the following but not working on Firefox (using 1.4.2 js):

$(td).children().each(function () {
        $(this).attr('disabled', 'disabled');
  });


  $(td).children().attr('disabled', 'disabled');

  $(td).children().attr('disabled', true);

  $(td).children().attr('disabled', 'true');

Note – I cannot de-register the click function for the anchor tag as it is registered dynamically. AND I HAVE TO SHOW THE LINK IN DISABLED MODE.
