Hyperlinks and Character Sheets

Is there a way to get a hyperlink to work in the "character sheet" tab of a character sheet?  The normal code doesn't seem to work, and the wiki doesn't mention it.  Thanks for any answers!

I'm not sure if you can actually make text a hyperlink, but you can just enter a URL and roll20 will parse the link code &lt;a class="linkclass" href="the URL from your code"&gt;the URL from your code&lt;/a&gt; example of just entering a URL. &nbsp;The URL is your hypertext.&nbsp; If you enter &lt;span&gt;LINK: <a href="http://something.com" rel="nofollow">http://something.com</a> &lt;/span&gt; will get parsed by roll20 to &lt;span&gt;LINK: &lt;a class="linkclass" href=" <a href="http://something.com" rel="nofollow">http://something.com</a> "&gt; <a href="http://something.com" rel="nofollow">http://something.com</a> &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Here an example of how you might be able to hide the url and position text under the url. &nbsp;Kind of a faux hyperlink. &nbsp;;-) &lt;span style="opacity:0;z-index:1;"&gt; <a href="http://something.com" rel="nofollow">http://something.com</a> &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="margin-left:-125px;z-index:0;"&gt;Something&lt;/span&gt;
That's an option...considering what I'm doing, that might work, but though only if it wraps. &nbsp;Thank you!

You could use something like tinyurl if you are going to use just a URL. You could also wrap the faux example within a div if you need to keep it together. Goodluck

they don't let you put links, (Vince has some plugin on chrome that allows him to click on them). the most I could do was allow the link to be selectable for copying via css. I also can't figure out how to link to an anchor in the sheet, which would be awesome if we could.

Chris is absolutely correct. &nbsp;I forgot all about the extension I use ( Clickable Links ) Nevermind... &nbsp; ;-( Not sure if it helps your situation; You can make text selectable so you can copy/paste the URL. &nbsp;Or just install an extension like Clickable Links...
I appreciate the information, and not all is lost. &nbsp;Considering I know everyone playing, it won't be hard to convince them to install a chrome extension, so that is an option combined with tinyurl.
