If you mean you have a piece of bare text like http://www.whatever.com
and you want to make it into a hyperlink after grabbing it from your
database - then you could do something like the following .

<?php

$grab="http://www.whatever.com";

$extra="<a href=$grab>$grab</a>";

print $extra;

?>

You could then store $extra in your database so it could be grabbed and
displayed like the following .

<?php

# read $extra from database .

print $extra;

?>
