<a href=”#” onclick=”return myFunc();”>Link< /a>

href attribute fill fire only when the result of onclick will be true (will no be false)

just write your function like this:
function myFun(){
//code
return false;
}

or <a href=”#” onclick=”myFunc(); return false;”>link< /a>

That won't make the jump to the top of the page…

This won't cause the page to jump back to the top each time. Instead of the “#” within the href, try it with “javascript;” instead. This won’t cause the page to jump back to the top each time.
