You can use the css-event-pointers property to disable links, but they have known issues with ie. Starting with ie 11 this property is supported. There is a bit of hacking. You must add the disabled class to the links and add the disabled attribute to the link, and then add the css, which is shown below. You also need to provide a none event pointer for the disabled binding attribute. After these two, this should work in most browsers.
a.disabled { pointer-events: none; } a[disabled] { pointer-events: none; }
