how to swap Image in jquery

How can I swap an image's SRC attribute, on click of that image?

<a href="#">
    <img src="./layout/images/search.png" />
</a>

$('img[src="./layout/images/search.png"]').click(function () {
    $(this).attr('src',"./layout/images/search_select.png")
});
Solution

  • You can try this solution:

    $("img").click(function(){
   $(this).attr("src","new.gif");
})

    As David Hedlund points out this will change all images on a page due to the img selector. You could target an image using a class as sam152 suggests or, you could target an image using it's src attribute - 

     $("img[src='old.gif']").click(function (){
   $(this).attr("src","new.gif");
})
