event.preventDefault() on first click then remove

Question

I have the default anchor disabled if it has a class subnav as shown in this fiddle.

I only want this disabled for the first click then I want the normal anchor function

Answer 1

You can pass false to one():

$(".subnav a").one("click", false);

Passing false instead of a handler is equivalent to passing a handler that returns false, effectively stopping the event's propagation and preventing its default behavior.

This is explained in the documentation for bind():

In jQuery 1.4.3 you can now pass in false in place of an event handler. This will bind an event handler equivalent to: function() { return false; }.
