update

<asp:linkbutton id="linkcreateuser" runat="server" postbackurl="https://www.google.co.in/?gws_rd=ssl" cssclass="w3-bar-item w3-button">create user</asp:linkbutton> <asp:hyperlink id="hyperlink1" runat="server" text="create user hyper" navigateurl="createuser.aspx" cssclass="w3-bar-item w3-button" ></asp:hyperlink> <a href="adminsecurity.aspx" runat="server" id="linksecurity" class="w3-bar-item w3-button">security</a> 

it appears on chrome browser above code

chrome browser

 <a id="hyperlink1" class="w3-bar-item w3-button" href="createuser.aspx">create user hyper</a>  <a id="linkcreateuser" class="w3-bar-item w3-button active" href='javascript:webform_dopostbackwithoptions(new webform_postbackoptions("ctl00$linkcreateuser", "", false, "", "https://www.google.co.in/?gws_rd=ssl", false, true))'>create user</a>  <a href="adminsecurity.aspx" id="linksecurity" class="w3-bar-item w3-button">security</a> 

jquery click event

$('.w3-sidebar a').click(function (e) {     e.preventdefault();   // it's not working because of this. how can set class = active clicking link?     $('.w3-sidebar a').removeclass('active');     $(this).addclass('active'); }) 

try using asp.net control either works or no like:

<asp:linkbutton id="linkcreateuser" runat="server" postbackurl="createuser.aspx" cssclass="w3-bar-item w3-button">create user</asp:linkbutton> <asp:hyperlink id="linkcreateuser" runat="server" text="create user" navigateurl="createuser.aspx" cssclass="w3-bar-item w3-button" ></asp:hyperlink> 

if still not working please share final html of anchor tag inspect element showing on web page?
