Suppose I have the following HTML:

<img id=foo src=bar1.jpg/>

I would like to switch the src to bar2.jpg

Can I just do this?

$(#foo).attr(src, bar2.jpg);

Or do I have to do this?

$(#foo).removeAttr(src);

$(#foo).attr(src, bar2.jpg);

Thanks!

When you do this:

$("#foo").attr("src", "bar2.jpg");

The previous src is replaced.

So you don't need:

$("#foo").removeAttr("src");
