I want to open a hyperlink from a Form. Is it possible to do that through some custom field type (i.e. html or read only field or button or any other field).
Can anyone advise on this?
HTML + read-only should be best. Add your HTML in “options”
I tried that before sending my query. It’s not working. (Link is not
remaining openable).
I was just adding url as shown under. Let me know if I need to add the same
in different way.
Thanking you,

@cpurbaugh Great!! Thank you very much. Heartily appreciated.
Could you please also advise modification in code, if we need to open link in new tab?
This should work:
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com">Google</a>
Example:
Edit: This doesn’t work. I’ll keep looking

Thank you very much. We will try this. But, before that we suddenly started getting following message while saving the form after customization (we only changed the text from “Google” to “click_here”. It’s working in Form but showing error while clicking on “update” button of Customize Form. (Sorry, if I am troubling you much, kindly ignore it).

OperationalError: (1067, “Invalid default value for ‘prepare_offer’”)
Try making the custom field html type, and just name it “click here” without the underscore. Enter the html for the address in the options box.
@umair or @cpurbaugh
We have removed the custom field on which we were making correction as above (but since this error as per previous post comes while clicking on update button, it does not allow to save the changes). and the same is preventing us from saving new opportunity.
Kindly advise on priority.
@umair I think total number of characters are increased in read only field. So, it’s neither allowing to save customize form (after editing) nor it’s saving opportunity due to error of increase in number of characters from 140. It has fallen into a loop.
How to resolve this. Can you please do something from back-end?
well, what about the ‘prepare_offer’ field? what is that?
hello @cpurbaugh,
Can you please help me with how can i open a modal box on that click…
Please its urgent
Regards
you can set type attach to your field and put your link
