Is it possible to add a hyperlink to a textarea form element?

You can but it won't link... it will simply show the actual code. Have you tried it at least? Try it... you'll see what it does.

I have tried it, but I want to offer a working link. Any ideas on a work around?

instead of putting all the information on the textarea - simply use an iframe.

That would work. Thanks!

Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, you could use a table and div combo.

This way you would simply add the content you want, instead of linking to another page.

<Center>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="30%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td width="100%"> <Div id="scrolling" style="height: 150; overflow: auto; width: 100%">
<blockquote>
Mary had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow.
<p>And everywhere that Mary went the lamb was sure to go.</p>
