Sorry for bothering. I've found the way:

<html>
<head>
<title>getElementById example</title>
</head>

<body>
<div id="here">
<td>
<a href ="http://www.google.com">Google</a>
<a href ="http://www.yahoo.com">Yahoo</a>
</td>
</div>

<script>

function fja()
{
alert("BLA");
}

var elementDiv = document.getElementById('here');
var elementsA = elementDiv.getElementsByTagName('a');

for(var i=0;i<elementsA.length;i++)
{
elementsA[i].onclick=fja;
alert(elementsA[i].href);
}

</script>

</body>
</html>
