HTML <a> href that points to another <a> href

I have a hidden <a> tag with some id. It renders by script, so I don't have access to it. And I have my own <a> which is visible to user. I want to when user clicks my own <a> it redirects him with same href which script rendered <a> has.

I can't use <script> tag or js script files.

<a href="/somegerantedhred" id="someId" style="display: none"></a>

If you can add some javascript into your element instead of the script, you may have some luck using onclick. Then target the hidden link, get it's href value, and use it to change the window location:

<a href="/somegerantedhred" id="someId" style="display: none"></a>

<a onclick="window.location.href = document.getElementById('someId').getAttribute('href')">Your button</a>

Not having access to the tags or the js files makes it almost impossible, the best thing I could come up with would be to use CSS to unhide the generated anchor by using #someId {display:block!important} so that you can use that generated tag as your anchor, however, I am not sure if this generated tag already has a value, if it doesn't, then nothing will be displayed in the screen and without access to the DOM with JS, it is pretty hard to find a solution to this matter.

#someId {display:block!important}
<a href="/somegerantedhred" id="someId" style="display: none">The hidden content</a>

<a href="somehow get same href">Your content</a>

If you can use onclick, then just put this in your source:

<a href="/somegerantedhred" id="someId" style="display: none"></a>

<a onclick="window.location.href = document.getElementById('someId').href"></a>
