This is a basic HTML problem, not a Rails one. Your link is a relative link to the file “www.somewhere.com” in the current directory, *not* a link to the site www.somewhere.com. You need an explicit method, e.g.: <a href='http://www.somewhere.com/'> ~Chris -- Chris Maden, text nerd <URL: http://crism.maden.org/ > Surround hate and force it to surrender.
