link stored in (MySQL) not displayed as a link but text.
Posted: Mon May 19, 2008 3:35 am
I have this following lines of text in my database (as text type). I am not getting any success as to how to make the link display as an actual link. Why in my html page this link is being displayed as plain text? I have used php to generate that message when a user addes another user, store the message in the DB and when the added person checks their inbox it shows them the following message.
In my source code it looks like this(which looks fine to me)
if anybody is wondering what whiteSquare css class looks like
Many Thanks for having a look at my code. Any help would be much appreciated.
