[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Need help making functional hyperlinks in finding aids

[Jane LaBarbara]

(Apologies if this has been asked before.)

Currently, my institution has hyperlinks in many of our Scope and Content notes that refer people to digitized content from the collections (example: View photographs associated with this collection in West Virginia History OnView.<http://wvhistoryonview.org/cgi/i/image/image-idx?q1=4159&rgn1=wvcp_co&op2=And&q2=&rgn2=ic_all&type=boolean&c=wvcp&view=thumbnail>)  The hyperlinks are not tagged in proper EAD fashion, so we have to fix that before we migrate to ASpace.   I tried using the extref tag and some of its attributes a few different ways in a dummy collection's S/C note in ASpace--when I look at the public view I see the text but it is NOT hyperlinked.

Can anyone give me some pointers or examples of successful hyperlinks in finding aids?

Thank you,
Jane
