Where does the property name HREF come from?

That has been an issue in local usergroup. And how do you pronounce it?

I wild-guessed it comes from Html Reference. I sugested to pronounce "H -
Ref" separately.

I believe it comes from hypertext reference. As far as how one pronounces
it, I've wondered the same thing. I say href all as one, like I'm exhaling
heavily while saying ref.

That sounds reasonable. Thank you very much Ray.

href should be pronounced "H Ref"
cdonts should be pronounced "C Dons"

I say href. I think when I'm at hypertext parties, I'll just say "hypertext
reference" to avoid embarrassment. ;]

C Dons? Interesting interpretation. For that one, I'll just say "old
technology."

Right.

And just in case, CDO should be pronounced "kah'doo" :
