Hi I need some help, Ive created an XML document which is being parsed fine by Javascript, but I cant work out how to have a URL as one of the elements and have it shown as a link when it is parsed.
Thanks

I'm not quite sure how you are parsing the XML in javascript but this may help.

Just include a hyperlink when parsing - so for instance, you have XML data in an 'url' tag and you've set the variable 'theurl' to it, you could do something like this -

blah.innerHTML += "<a href='" + theurl + "'>" + theurl + "</a>"

That works thanks!
Turns out my problem was i was using blah.innerText rather than blah.HTML
