Hi guis i want to ask something. I am working with dreamweaver and mysql (php). What is the syntax in a mysql field to add a url in order when i call this record in dreamweaver table to give me the link (url) that i insert in the field of mysql table? I insert <a href=" but when i call this record in dreamweaver through a recordset this record appears as a text not as link (url).
 
I would have thought this was a Dreamweaver issue.

MySQL does not have a data type of URL.

The URL you stored in your MySQL table will have been stored as a string (CHAR, VARCHAR, TEXT and so on).

If MySQL is returning the URL string to Dreamweaver then somehow you need to tell Dreamweaver that it is an URL.

I can't help you with Dreamweaver. Ask in the Dreamweaver forum.
