Hyperlink in the Custom Attribute Display Pop-up

KeithGanzenmuller

Trying to configure a fairly simple pop-up with some descriptive text and hyperlink to a web page.
The point features include a LABEL field which has the name of the facility and Hyperlink field which, curiously enough, contains the complete hyperlink in a format like this: http://www.srhc.com
If I configure the pop-up using "A list of field attributes" the hyperlink works, it displays as follows:
More info... More info
I realize I can edit the first "More Info...". The second More info functions properly as a hyperlink.

So now my issue. I want to use the custom attribute display so I can have more control of the pop-up.
If I just click the (+) and click on {Hyperlink} it adds it to the text box and if you click on the facility the pop-up will show http://www.srhc.com  with no indication that it is a hyperlink. When I try to use the Create link tool and I place {Hyperlink} in the URL: section it says "The value entered is not valid".
So the question is, how can I get the value of the field named "Hyperlink" into the URL: section of the custom pop-up dialog?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Unfortunately, you can't do this in the ArcGIS.com map viewer. The custom popup editor uses an out-of-the-box widget that doesn't support our field substitution syntax and thus, expects an explicit http:// value. This is on our list of things to do.

However, you can do this in ArcGIS Explorer Online...Open your map in ArcGIS Explorer Online and edit the popup there. From the Details panel, there is a link to open in Explorer Online.
