Get full URL of the href

I have the following code that when pressing a <a href I get the url of this one:

<a href="http://localhost/uno/dos.zip">DESCARGAR</a>

and jQuery

$('a').click(function(event) {
  var url = $('a').attr('href');
  alert(url);
});

The problem is this: when I press the link in the index.php page that I'm doing, when I press the jQuery function that shows a url is executed, but this function takes only the value of link and not the entire url link that is in <a href more above.

Is there any other option apart from href?

javascript jquery href

Check your code because the one you use should show you the full url.

Here is the working example:

$('a').click(function(event) {
  var url = $('a').attr('href');
  alert(url);
  event.preventDefault();
});

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.slim.min.js"></script>

<a href="http://localhost/uno/dos">DESCARGAR</a>
