Inserting hyperlink into survey description

Question

Hi all,

I'm trying to insert a clickable hyperlink in the survey description section in the browser version of Survey123. according to the survey style page, this is possible. But, when I insert the links, the survey won't save, and I am returned this error message. Any suggestions on how to fix?

Edit. Screenshot did not attach at first.

Er, noobie mistake. I did not test it on other websites. I was using the wrong website url (instead of the one meant for sharing: https://youtu.be/F6fltSqImFM  ). But thank you for telling me how to make sure the link opens in separate page.

It looks like there was an error not with the link, but with the alert dialog that should appear asking you to confirm navigating to a different page (if this is an unsaved form). In the link, can you add target="_blank" to the link tag (i.e., YouTube )? That should get around that particular error.

My mistake, I did not realize my screenshot did not attach.
