Prevent anchor link from being added to URL

I have a tabbed content box that when a tab is clicked, a '#div1' is appended to the end of my URL. Is there a way of preventing jQuery from doing this?

I still can't get it to work. I've made a fiddle...

    $(function(){
        $('a[href="#"]').click(function(event){
            event.preventDefault();
        });
    });

Sure, event.preventDefault() is what you are looking for.
