You can use an IFRAME if you want to display the HTML equivalent. The
ActivateURL takes text that someone types in and turns the links into
active links by surrounding the text with <a> </a>.

At first glance, it looks like it puts an <a href... around the
link.
But if this is displayed in a textarea, it would just display the text
with a <a href... around the link , but it still would not function as a
hyper link. Or am I wrong here.

Subject: Put a link in a textarea
Is there a way that a user can enter a URL in a textarea and have the
link actually display and work as a hyperlink? For example:
<textarea name="Miscell" cols="110" rows="5" wrap="Virtual"
class="noborder"> blah blah blah http://www.houseoffusion.com/ blah blah
blah</textarea>
