How to Format URL?

[Barbara]

I am new to Hal AIM Bot, and am adding phrases to the Main Keyword & Priority Brain.  I would like to include a clickable URL in a response.  I have tried the following to no avail:

<a href="http://www.surfnetkids.com">click here</a>

and
<a href="http://www.surfnetkids.com" target="_blank">click here</a>

I suspect I need to use some escape characters to get this to work.  Any one know?

Thanks,
Barbara

I was being too sophistaticted. I found that complete URLS work (without the HTML) unless they contain an underscore.

For example, this works:
http://www.surfnetkids.com

But this does not:
http://www.surfnetkids.com/games/Word_Games/

Cool, I was kinda waiting to hear the answer... Thanks for thinking for me!
