We have several ways to do this:
Jquery
a) Specific control type
$('input[type=submit], select, input[type=text], input[type=button], input[type=checkbox], input[type=radio], textarea, a').not('#ContentPlaceHolderMiddle_btnTEsting').removeAttr('onclick').removeAttr('href').attr({ 'disabled': 'disabled' });
b) All Controls
$("*").not('#ContentPlaceHolderMiddle_btnTEsting').removeAttr('onclick').removeAttr("href").attr({ "disabled": "disabled" });
Javascript
var vControl = document.forms[0].elements;
var vControlAnchor = document.forms[0].getElementsByTagName('a');
for (j = 0; j < vControlAnchor.length; j++) {
vControlAnchor[j].removeAttribute('href');
//document.forms[0].getElementsByTagName('a')[0].removeAttribute('href');
}
for(i = 0; i< vControl.length; i++)
{
vControl[i].disabled = true;
}
