That looks like it might work but you would need to close the <a> tag after the text "...see also tony</a></name>"

that won't work at all, i already tried it
but i did something different i added a tag in the xml call <link> and a label in my mxml it goes something like this

<mx:Label id="src" x="2" y="390" width="436" text="{datagrid.selectedItem.link}"
click="inputText.text=src.text" toolTip="Go to {datagrid.selectedItem.link}"/>

so if there is a link and u click on it, will take u to it's definition not exactly what i wanted but it works
