Reusing anchor node leaves empty href attr #169

Problem: When an anchor node that has an href is reused by the virtualdom, it leaves an empty href="" attribute instead of removing the attribute. This causes clicks to reload the page.

workaround is to use another type of node when you don't want a link and style appropriately
