Using getElementById you can access and assign the href value. Even you can perform click events from script code.
document.getElementById('fo').href = new URL("https://eyehunts.com/")Call href from JavaScript Example
HTML example code: Assign the alert box script in href, you can add URL values also.
The href I’d like to activate is a “javascript:FUNCTION” kind of link.
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<body>
<a href="javascript:alert('test');" id="fo">JS Auto Click</a>
<script>
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<body>
<a href="#" id="fo">JS Auto Click</a>
<script>
document.getElementById('fo').href = "javascript:alert('test');"
document.getElementById('fo').click();//fake a click on the link
</script>
</body>
</html>
