When an information
map for relational data is created, your data administrator can indicate
that a given category data item contains HTML string values that define
hyperlinks. An example of a database value associated with a hyperlink
data item might be the following:
<a ref="http://www.abc.com/coffeecompany.html">Coffee
Company</a>
. This example is an HTML string that
indicates that the item should appear online as
Coffee
Company and that it should be underlined to
indicate that it is a hyperlink to an HTML document.
The following display
shows an example of hyperlink data items in a list table.

When you click the underlined
hyperlink item, the action specified by the HTML is performed. In
most cases, the browser opens a Web page.
SAS Web Report Studio
does not allow you to place hyperlink data items into a graph. The
hyperlink data item is mainly intended for use in relational tables.
