Unable to display an 'onclick' attribute

I have HTML that looks like this:

<html>
    <head></head>
    <body>
        <a class="xyxyxy" href="" onclick="window.open('https://iogossip.com/Disclosure.pdf', '_blank')">DISCLOSURE</a>
    </body>
</html>

I need to put the 'https://iogossip.com/Disclour.pdf' to the screen. or put the whole thing like "window.open('https://iogossip.com/Disclosure.pdf', '_blank')" to the screen. when I do this:

puts browser.a.onclick

I am getting this error:

NoMethodError: undefined method `onclick' for #<Watir::Anchor:0x29fc448>
        from C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/watir-webdriver-0.6.2/lib/watir
-webdriver/elements/element.rb:553:in `method_missing'
        from (irb):6
        from C:/Ruby193/bin/irb:12:in `<main>'

thanks,

You can get attribute values using the Element#attribute_value method (which should be supported in watir 2.0.3):

puts browser.a.attribute_value('onclick')
#=> "window.open('https://iogossip.com/Disclosure.pdf', '_blank')"

try: href="#"
