  • You said you have a button, why don't you just disable the button instead of the `div`? – Steven V Jun 11 '13 at 14:14

Use .prop( propertyName, value ) instead of .attr( attributeName, value )

Also disable button not .div_class:

$(".div_class button").prop("disabled", true);

  • I meant to add it to your answer no the comments...This is the correct answer but seriously without context the next person to come to here is just going to get the solution without the why it fixes it...hardly teaching them anything. – abc123 Jun 11 '13 at 15:34

As per Docs It didn't make any sense that disabling a div as there is no attribute or property called disabled for a div element.forget about div disable the button

$('#buttonselector').prop("disabled", true);

  • thanks, i had repeated the div with unique id. every div will have separate disable button. also i'm not having only button in it. i have some other data also in it. – Ramesh Jun 11 '13 at 14:50
