Remarks

You can use the Hyperlink element to display hyperlinks in a RichTextBox. Hyperlinks provide built-in mouse-over behavior and focus support. Use the NavigateUri property of the Hyperlink element to specify the URL.

NoteNote:

You must set the IsReadOnly property of RichTextBox to true for the Hyperlink element to be active.

Silverlight for Windows Phone Silverlight for Windows Phone

When Hyperlink is used on Windows Phone, to open the Web browser, you must specify a value for the TargetName property.

Examples

The following show shows how to create a RichTextBox with a hyperlink in XAML and code.

<!--A RichTextBox with hyperlink.-->
<RichTextBox IsReadOnly="True">
    <Paragraph>
        Displaying text with <Hyperlink NavigateUri="http://www.msdn.com" TargetName="_blank">hyperlink</Hyperlink>.
    </Paragraph>
</RichTextBox>

'A RichTextBox with hyperlink.
Private Sub HyperlinkRTB()
    'Create a new RichTextBox.
    Dim MyRTB As New RichTextBox()

    ' Create a Run of plain text and hyperlink.
    Dim myRun As New Run()
    myRun.Text = "Displaying text with "
    Dim MyLink As New Hyperlink()
    MyLink.Inlines.Add("hyperlink")
    MyLink.NavigateUri = New Uri("http://www.msdn.com")
    MyLink.TargetName = "_blank"

    ' Create a paragraph and add the Run and hyperlink to it.
    Dim myParagraph As New Paragraph()
    myParagraph.Inlines.Add(myRun)
    myParagraph.Inlines.Add(MyLink)

    ' Add the paragraph to the RichTextBox.
    MyRTB.Blocks.Add(myParagraph)

    'Add the RichTextBox to the StackPanel.
    MySP.Children.Add(MyRTB)
End Sub

//A RichTextBox with hyperlink.
private void HyperlinkRTB()
{
    //Create a new RichTextBox.
    RichTextBox MyRTB = new RichTextBox();

    // Create a Run of plain text and hyperlink.
    Run myRun = new Run();
    myRun.Text = "Displaying text with ";
    Hyperlink MyLink = new Hyperlink();
    MyLink.Inlines.Add("hyperlink");
    MyLink.NavigateUri = new Uri("http://www.msdn.com");
    MyLink.TargetName = "_blank";

    // Create a paragraph and add the Run and hyperlink to it.
    Paragraph myParagraph = new Paragraph();
    myParagraph.Inlines.Add(myRun);
    myParagraph.Inlines.Add(MyLink);

    // Add the paragraph to the RichTextBox.
    MyRTB.Blocks.Add(myParagraph);

    //Add the RichTextBox to the StackPanel.
