I have a java app that returns a URL as a string. I want to display this URL on an HTML page as a 'Name', but don't know how e.g. URL of this page is:
so how to I link it to a 'name' such as the one I might give it in my bookmarks: 'tec-tips'?

Hi

Define "name".
Code: 
<a href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.tek-tips.com/threadminder.cfm?pid=215">[/URL][red]Do you mean this ?[/red]</a>

feherke, tx for quick response.....
Actually, I didn't give an accurate problem statement, sorry. T
he URL is contained in a java.net.url object, call it URLobject.......therefore, the 'name' points to the URLobject which contains the actual URL..

No, I don't think I need a proxy, let me try explaining another way

url = object holding url is urlobj
urlobj =
my html page is: 'tec-tips'
I click on tec-tips and it takes me to:
if I put 'urlobj' in html code, it doesn't expand when being processed by browser!!

hopefully this helps better explain,
tx again..frank

Hi

Sorry, still no idea.

I do not even have idea if your question is HTML related or not. Try posting this in forum269, maybe someone there will see the meaning of using URL object there.
