[jQuery] replace href with affiliate id

[jQuery] replace href with affiliate id


I've been trying this a few different ways and have been unable to
replace a regular link with a link that includes my affiliate ID.
Here's the function which I call to replace the links, and the alert
does show the correct updated link
[code]
function updateTix(){
        $('.tix a').each(function(event){
        var tixLink = $(this).attr('href');
        var affilLink = 'http://www.stubhub.com/'+tixLink+'?
ticket_finder='+affil;
        alert(affilLink);
        $(this).attr('href').replace(tixLink, affilLink);
    });
[/code]
I've tried the following to replace the href, but non are working...
[code]
$(this).attr('href').replace(tixLink, affilLink);
$(this).attr('href').replace(affilLink);
$(this).attr('href', affilLink);
this.href=affilLink;
[/code]
any ideas on this?
