Have the link in a span with an id
onclick of the link change the innerHTML of the id

<script type="text/javascript">
function disable()
{
 
    document.getElementById('thelink').innerHTML = 'click me!';
 
}
</script>
 
<span id="thelink"><a onclick="disable()" href="#">click me!</a></span>

Or add this code to the onclick event of the hyperlink..

[HTML]<a href="location.xyz" onclick="this.onclick=function () {return false;}" target="_blank">One time clickable link</a>[/HTML]

If you have already calling some other function on click event, add that above line after calling that function.
