Protocol is a property of both the Link
and the Location objects and is the
string at the beginning of a URL, up to and including the first colon
(:), which specifies the method of access to the URL.
NOTE:
Although the protocol property can be set at any time, it is
safer to set the href property to change
a link

document.write(document.links[0].protocol)Output:
