== Why is this an issue?

There are two ways to build a link that has the sole purpose of running JavaScript code. The goal of this rule is to ban such patterns in order to support browsing with JavaScript disabled.


=== Noncompliant code example

[source,text]
----
<a href="#" onclick="alert('Clicked!'); return false;">Run JavaScript Code</a> <!-- Noncompliant -->
<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="alert('Clicked!'); return false;">Run JavaScript Code</a>  <!-- Noncompliant -->
<a id="inPageAnchor">Jump down the page to me</a>  <!-- Compliant -->
----


=== Compliant solution

[source,text]
----
<a id="inPageAnchor">Jump down the page to me</a>  <!-- Compliant -->
