italicizing urls

italicizing urls

[prad]

since a url uses the forward slash as do italicized items, i'm having
difficulty italicizing urls on the html export.

/just [[http://gohere.com][go here]] will you?/

shows up as 
/just go here will you?/
on the html export (though the go here link is valid) with nothing
italicized and the forward slashes visible.

i can get around it this way to some extent:
/just/ [[http://gohere.com][go here]] /will you?/

but was wondering if there is a better way since the "go here" is still
not italicized.

Aloha prad,

Would this work for you?

/just/ [[http://gohere.com][/go here/]] /will you?/

All the best,
Tom

hi tom! thx for this, but it seems to be the same thing that i have in
my initial post.

i was hoping not to have to break up the line into pieces.

i even tried putting escapes in:
http:\/\/gohere...
but that didn't work.

i guess orgmode doesn't leave the / inside [[][]] alone.
