Whether it\u2019s to prevent a user from adding a sold out item to their shopping cart, or not allowing the user to click a button after an action is performed, jQuery does not have a method to disable buttons directly.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, we use the <code>prop()<\/code> method, a newer addition to the library \u2014 appearing in jQuery 1.6. It was introduced as a solution to retrieving property values of selected elements. Previously, this was done with the <code>attr()<\/code> method, which retrieves attribute values.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a method concerned with getting attribute values while also retrieving property values yielded unpredictable results at times. As of jQuery 1.6, the <code>prop()<\/code> method was introduced to solve this disparity. For the sake of our purposes, we will be using <code>prop()<\/code> to disable our buttons because \u201cdisabled\u201d is a property value of a HTML button element.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d like to learn more about using <code>att()<\/code> vs. <code>prop()<\/code>, read the brief history and <a href=\"https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/prop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">prop() jQuery Syntax<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve touched on why and how to use <code>prop()<\/code>, we can take a look at syntax. Remember that <code>prop()<\/code> is just another jQuery method and these methods are called on a selected element \u2014 in our case, a button. Let\u2019s look at how we might disable a button with an id of \u201cbtn\u201d.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-codemirror-blocks-code-block code-block\"><pre>&lt;button id='btn' type='submit'&gt;\nButton is Disabled\n&lt;\/button&gt;<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This HTML renders the button.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/S3XmOftLEnI46838z8C0vJNstuMT8NpdzZ5q-b7fUOGiyCqkGs8LeqGqhKAg1-pWBp0BrDdc5ME_S1BXimbxyeJmmAowP9OD6B4lVEKztGyAvtxgVbMFf5uEULK2IHykQjRHthK1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Our button is rendering! Now we can set the property value of \u201cdisabled\u201d to true using jQuery <code>prop()<\/code>.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-codemirror-blocks-code-block code-block\"><pre>$('#btn').prop('disabled', true)<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As we can see, <code>prop()<\/code> accepts the value as a string and we set the boolean value in the second argument. Boolean values are either true or false. Here\u2019s a <a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/javascript-boolean\/\">guide <\/a>that goes deeper into how to use booleans.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/BoY2-4D914h7dEHfMsyMfHNuZ691Vx0y-LkgDtpHOom6FOC4gjY-bFzvcRr2c45rpgKowdVKoDcA6TFEUHbJ8rSGy9_kDI56-da4o1k8BLLx8VCF9esJF8dUaq-_6Va8HEhN0ha5\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After setting the \u201cdisabled\u201d property to true, we render an unclickable button. Now that we understand the syntax, let\u2019s take a look at why and when we\u2019d want to use this. In the next section, we will take a look at an e-commerce site with products having an attribute of \u201csold-out?\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using jQuery prop() to Disable a Button<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In this example, we have a shopping app that will disable an \u201cAdd to Cart\u201d button if the product is sold out. For this example, we will render a simple HTML button, and a &lt;div&gt; to add the item if it is not sold out.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-codemirror-blocks-code-block code-block\"><pre>&lt;button class='add' type='submit'&gt;\nAdd to Cart\n&lt;\/button&gt;\n\n&lt;div&gt;\n\n&lt;\/div&gt;<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s see how our button rendered.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/qX-MS0S263ZwWJzpOrzMuL9r1muB43_DJvmJTxB_nGEllfJmgJ3KYBwJP9WkrkHKe2H5QHB0zYIV2NfvQL7YFAT1bYXkZG7ETRsmo01vdYVHHyGUgYOKBFeT1mp1MywZMb5iztc9\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s create a product and a callback function \u2014 a function passed to another function to be called later \u2014 to display our cart in the &lt;div&gt; above. If the product is sold out, the button will disable.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-codemirror-blocks-code-block code-block\"><pre>const product = {\nname: 'Jacket',\nprice: 50.00,\nsoldOut: false\n}\n\n\n$(document).ready(function() {\n $('button.add').click(function(event) {\n   event.preventDefault()\n   alert(JSON.stringify(product.soldOut))\n   if (product.soldOut) {\n   $('.add').prop('disabled', true)\n   } else {\n   $('div').append(product.name)\n   }\n })\n})<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We have created a variable called product that contains an object. The object has properties of name, price, and soldOut. If the property soldOut is false, we should see our jacket displayed in our &lt;div&gt;. Let\u2019s click Add to Cart and see what happens.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/XYWCWDrICiw_sHJaMKyts59898nvOgDpHNWtiMhX23zbbWTizuzFH5Zo2cK-7dERxypQna_jiRL5afEFPVPpwSusYvnfBEUfBvMGllTS7NYxrP99DmBfDGVT4LNjOkHfhJ5beViy\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since our soldOut property is set to false, we displayed our product in the &lt;div&gt;. What if that was the last jacket in stock? Let\u2019s see what happens when the soldOut property is set to true. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-codemirror-blocks-code-block code-block\"><pre>const product = {\nname: 'Jacket',\nprice: 50.00,\nsoldOut: true\n}<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We expect the Add to Cart button to now be disabled.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/dIPkT3SYlBDhcPA-tEG6AkxfxStHXJrZ7eRD2tjm5vq-uaPfmrqk0hkr_XuarYZNoSFOOLF-Un7Pjav1jchyjNy9po8bto5_k0aHq2UQWnp_f7Oe2NH4nrH04o-PoHljMuOL6H4d\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s exactly what we wanted. Using the conditional statement in the callback function, we were able to disable the Add to Cart button. Now users can\u2019t add sold out items to their cart. We avoided a major headache in our e-commerce app!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In learning how to disable an HTML button with jQuery, we\u2019ve discovered that jQuery doesn\u2019t have an explicit method to do so. To work around this, we used the <code>prop()<\/code> method to set the button property \u201cdisabled\u201d to true. Then we saw an example of how disabling a button is useful.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guiding the user experience in web development is essential. In this guide, we used disabling buttons to guide the user experience. Explore how disabling a button could help direct your user experience in your next project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There are many reasons to disable a button in a web application.
