See Also                  Applies To

Description

Places an HTML anchor with an HREF attribute around the text in a String object.

Syntax

strVariable.link(linkstring)
"String Literal".link(linkstring)

The linkstring argument is the text that you want to place in the HREF attribute of the HTML anchor.

Remarks

Call the link method to create a hyperlink out of a String object. The following is an example of how the method accomplishes this:

var strVariable = "This is a hyperlink";
strVariable = strVariable.link("http://www.microsoft.com");

The value of strVariable after the last statement is:

<A HREF="http://www.microsoft.com">This is a hyperlink</A>

No checking is done to see if the tag has already been applied to the string.
