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.
