You shouldn't use an <a> tag in first place. You can always use another kind of tag to display information. Specially since the contents of your href attribute aren't really valid links. Using an id attribute in your enclosed <img> should be even better.

<img id="'.$portfolio_id.'">

Or adapting your layout would be a better approach.

Add onclick="return false;" to your anchor tag. This will prevent the link from being navigated to.

<a href="id='.$portfolio_id.' " onclick="return false;"><img height="57" width="57" src="images/portfolio_uploads/orig_'.$portfolio_item['image'].'" /></a>

However, I don't understand the point of this, and this isn't want the anchor tag is designed for. Perhaps if you supply more information we can find a better solution.

Add "#" character in-front of the id, it wont navigate to other page.

<a href="#id='.$portfolio_id.' "><img height="57" width="57" src="images/portfolio_uploads/orig_'.$portfolio_item['image'].'" /></a>

Assign a click event and return false, this will stop the browser from navigating to the href.

<script type="text/javascript">

window.onload = function()
{

    document.getElementById("mylink").onclick = function()
    {
        return false;
    }

}

</script>


 <a id="mylink" href="http://google.com"><img height="57" width="57" src="images/portfolio_uploads/orig_'.$portfolio_item['image'].'"></a>
