Re: How to allow users enters html links in text input area and h ow t o display it

[Bill Siggelkow <bi...@bellsouth.net>]

Hmmm -- if a user enters the following into the text area:

My favorite site is <a href='http://struts.apache.org'>Struts</a>

Then you render this using <bean:write filter="false"/> it should work.

If the users are just entering the URLs (the http://... part) then you 
will need to generate the "<a href" part yourself.
