I am trying to add an html link to a website but the website strips out the html:
When I view the source I get this:
<a href = "http://www.soandso.com">http://www.soandso.com/</a>
instead of what I actually want which is this:
<a href = "www.soandso.com">www.soandso.com</a>
Is there an html command to bypass the filter?
Almost certainly not.
Most sites quite rightly don’t just let users inject arbitrary HTML. That’s the source of XSS (cross site scripting) vulnerabilities.
If the site strips (or escapes) tags, just put in http://www.example.com and that will have to do.
