Examples

Here's an example of a simple Hyperlink element in a TextBlock.

In XAML, the creation of content elements is implicit, so you can add the link text directly to the Hyperlink, and the Hyperlink directly to the TextBlock element.

In code, you have to explicitly create each Run element, set its Text property, and add it to the appropriate Inlines collection (either the Hyperlink or the TextBlock).

<TextBlock><Hyperlink NavigateUri="http://www.bing.com">Go to Bing</Hyperlink></TextBlock>
// Create a TextBlock. The hyperlink is the TextBlock content. 
TextBlock tb = new TextBlock();

// Create a Hyperlink and a Run. 
// The Run provides the visible content of the hyperlink. 
Hyperlink hyperlink = new Hyperlink();
Run run = new Run();

// Set the Text property on the Run. This will be the visible text of the hyperlink.
run.Text = "Go to Bing";
// Set the URI for the Hyperlink. 
hyperlink.NavigateUri = new Uri("http://www.bing.com");

// Add the Run to Hyperlink.Inlines collection.
hyperlink.Inlines.Add(run);
// Add the text elements to the TextBlock.Inlines collection.
tb.Inlines.Add(hyperlink);
// Add the TextBlock to a StackPanel (defined in the XAML page).        
stackPanel.Children.Add(tb);

This example shows a Hyperlink element in a TextBlock with other text.

In XAML, the creation of content elements is implicit, so you can add the link text directly to the Hyperlink. The Span element with the xml:space="preserve" attribute is used to preserve white space around the hyperlink.

In code, you have to explicitly create each Run element, set its Text property, and add it to the appropriate Inlines collection (either the Hyperlink or the TextBlock).

<TextBlock>
    <Span xml:space="preserve"><Run>Open </Run><Hyperlink NavigateUri="http://www.bing.com">Bing</Hyperlink><Run> in your browser.</Run></Span>
</TextBlock>
// Create a TextBlock. The hyperlink is part of the TextBlock content. 
// Set TextWrapping so that the text and the hyperlink wrap if the content is too wide.
TextBlock tb = new TextBlock();
tb.TextWrapping = TextWrapping.Wrap;

// Create a Hyperlink and a Run. 
// The Run provides the visible content of the hyperlink. 
Hyperlink hyperlink = new Hyperlink();
Run run = new Run();
// Set the Text property on the Run. This will be the visible text of the hyperlink.
run.Text = "Bing";
// Set the URI for the Hyperlink. 
hyperlink.NavigateUri = new Uri("http://www.bing.com");
//Add the Run to Hyperlink.Inlines collection.
hyperlink.Inlines.Add(run);

// Create Run elements for the text around the hyperlink.
Run run1 = new Run();
Run run2 = new Run();            
//Set the Text property on the Run elements.
run1.Text = "Open ";
run2.Text = " in your browser.";

// Add the text elements to the TextBlock.Inlines collection.
tb.Inlines.Add(run1);
tb.Inlines.Add(hyperlink);
tb.Inlines.Add(run2);

// Add the TextBlock to a StackPanel (defined in the XAML page).        
stackPanel.Children.Add(tb);

Here's an example of a simple Hyperlink element in a TextBlock.

In XAML, the creation of content elements is implicit, so you can add the link text directly to the Hyperlink, and the Hyperlink directly to the TextBlock element. The Span element with the xml:space="preserve" attribute is used to preserve white space around the hyperlink.

In code, you have to explicitly create each text element (for example, Run, Paragraph, or Italic) and add it to the appropriate Inlines collection.

<RichTextBlock>
    <Paragraph>
        <Span xml:space="preserve">
            <Run>This shows a hyperlink in a paragraph of text. You can click it to open </Run><Hyperlink NavigateUri="http://www.bing.com" UnderlineStyle="None" FontWeight="SemiBold"><Italic>Bing</Italic></Hyperlink><Run> in your browser.</Run>
        </Span>
    </Paragraph>
</RichTextBlock>
// Create a RichTextBlock. The hyperlink is part of the content. 
// Set TextWrapping so that the text and the hyperlink wrap if the content is too wide.
RichTextBlock rtb = new RichTextBlock();
rtb.TextWrapping = TextWrapping.Wrap;

// Create a Hyperlink and a Run. 
// The Run provides the visible content of the hyperlink. 
Hyperlink hyperlink = new Hyperlink();
Run run = new Run();
// Set the Text property on the Run. This will be the visible text of the hyperlink.
run.Text = "Bing";
// Set the URI  and other properties for the Hyperlink. 
hyperlink.NavigateUri = new Uri("http://www.bing.com");
hyperlink.UnderlineStyle = UnderlineStyle.None;
hyperlink.FontWeight = Windows.UI.Text.FontWeights.SemiBold;
//Add the Run to Hyperlink.Inlines collection.
hyperlink.Inlines.Add(run);


// Create an Italic element for the hyperlink.            
Italic italic = new Italic();
italic.Inlines.Add(hyperlink);

// Create Run elements for the text around the hyperlinks.
// Set the Text property on the Run elements.
Run run1 = new Run();
Run run2 = new Run();
run1.Text = "This shows a hyperlink in a paragraph of text. You can click it to open ";
run2.Text = " in your browser.";

// Create a Paragraph to hold the RichTextBlock content.
Paragraph paragraph = new Paragraph();

// Add the text elements to the Paragraph.Inlines collection.
paragraph.Inlines.Add(run1);
paragraph.Inlines.Add(italic);
paragraph.Inlines.Add(run2);
//Add the paragraph to the RichTextBlock.
rtb.Blocks.Add(paragraph);
// Add the RichTextBlock to a StackPanel (defined in the XAML page).        
stackPanel.Children.Add(rtb);

Remarks

There are two ways that you can add a hyperlink to a XAML app. Hyperlink and HyperlinkButton have the similar purpose of enabling a user to launch a specific URI using a separate browser app.+ Use an inline Hyperlink text element inside of a text control. A Hyperlink element flows with other text elements and you can use it in any InlineCollection.

You use the Hyperlink element to add interactive text to the content of a TextBlock or RichTextBlock. Hyperlink is derived from the Inline class, so you can place it inside of any container that has an InlineCollection as its Inlines property, such as TextBlock, Paragraph, or Span.

Tip

When you use a Hyperlink within a Span container with other text elements in XAML, apply the xml:space="preserve" attribute to the Span to keep the white space between the Hyperlink and other elements.

To use the hyperlink to navigate to a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), set the NavigateUri property. When a user clicks or taps the Hyperlink element, the specified Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) opens in the default browser. The default browser runs in a separate process from your app.

Tip

You don't have to use http: or https: schemes. You can use schemes such as ms-appx:, ms-appdata:, or ms-resources:, if there's resource content at these locations that's appropriate to load in a browser. However, the file: scheme is specifically blocked. For more info, see URI schemes.

When a user clicks the Hyperlink, the value of the NavigateUri property is passed to a system handler for Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) types and schemes. The system then launches the app that is registered for the scheme of the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) provided for NavigateUri.

If you don't want the Hyperlink to load content in a default Web browser (and don't want a browser to appear), then don't set a value for NavigateUri. Instead, handle the Click event, and write code that does what you want.

Handle the Click event

Use the Click event for actions other than launching a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) in a browser, such as navigation within the app. For example, if you want to load a new app page rather than opening a browser, call a Frame.Navigate method within your Click event handler to navigate to the new app page. If you want an external, absolute Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) to load within a WebView control that also exists in your app, call WebView.Navigate as part of your Click handler logic.

You don't typically handle the Click event as well as specifying a NavigateUri value, as these represent two different ways of using the Hyperlink element. If your intent is to open the URI in the default browser, and you have specified a value for NavigateUri, don't handle the Click event. Conversely, if you handle the Click event, don't specify a NavigateUri.

There's nothing you can do within the Click event handler to prevent the default browser from loading any valid target specified for NavigateUri; that action takes place automatically (asynchronously) when the hyperlink is activated and can't be canceled from within the Click event handler.

Because a Hyperlink is not a UIElement, it does not have the set of UI element input events such as Tapped, PointerPressed and so on. Instead, a Hyperlink has its own Click event, plus the implicit behavior of the system loading any Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) specified as the NavigateUri. The system handles all input actions that should invoke the Hyperlink actions and raises the Click event in response.

Hyperlink has restrictions on the content that can exist in its Inlines collection. Specifically, a Hyperlink only permits Run and other Span types that aren't another Hyperlink. InlineUIContainer can't be in the Inlines collection of a Hyperlink. Attempting to add restricted content throws an invalid argument exception or XAML parse exception.

Hyperlink doesn't inherit from Control, so it doesn't have a Style property or a Template. You can edit the properties that are inherited from TextElement, such as Foreground or FontFamily, to change the appearance of a Hyperlink, but you can't use a common style or template to apply changes. Instead of using a template, consider using common resources for values of Hyperlink properties to provide consistency. Some properties of Hyperlink use defaults from a {ThemeResource} markup extension value provided by the system. This enables the Hyperlink appearance to switch in appropriate ways when the user changes the system theme at run-time.

The default color of the hyperlink is the accent color of the system. You can set the Foreground property to override this.

By default, Hyperlink is underlined. This underline is important because it helps meet accessibility requirements. Color-blind users use the underline to distinguish between hyperlinks and other text. You can set the UnderlineStyle property to disable the underline. If you disable underlines, you should consider adding some other type of formatting difference to distinguish hyperlinks from other text, such as FontWeight or FontStyle.
