How to publish a hyperlink in the Android Market description? I’ve tried to insert something like this: <a href="http://m.url.co.uk/somepage.aspx"></a> in the description, but it shows the exact HTML code instead of a clickable link.
I’ve seen it done on another Market page so it is possible, but how?
Answer: For the web site it was enough to write the HTTP address. On the device Market it seems to be impossible.
I have also not been able to insert an anchor-tag style descriptive hyperlink in the “Description” field.
That said, it looks like https://market.android.com/details?id=net.timessquareball.app achieves this by simply writing out the entire URL as text (which does work). We’ve used this method in our app description as well.
If you’re interested, I’ve experimented with a bit of other markup in the “Description” field and blogged about it here.
