link Method (Windows Scripting - JScript)

  • Article

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

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

Remarks

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

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("https://www.microsoft.com");

The value of strVariable after the last statement is:

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

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