Why the href attributes of a tags are printed to screen? [duplicate]

Answer 1

Make sure the media attribute of your link item is set to "print"

<link rel="stylesheet" href="App_Themes/Default/print.css" type="text/css" media="print" />

The CSS that is responsible for this looks something like:

a:link:after, a:visited:after {content:" (" attr(href) ")";font-size:90%;}

Answer 2

It looks like you may be grabbing the print.css for the screen. Make sure you have your media types set properly.
