html links in strings or GUI components possible?

Question

Is there a way to provide web html links in any text or GUI objects in Unity? i.e., If I had some text displayed and if you clicked on a highlighted word it would call a www or wwwform, etc?

there is not any easy way to do this. you should create a button or label in the position that you want and then in it's click use Application.OpenURL. if you want to show this inside a block of text then it will not be that easy with fixed layout GUIs so use automatic layouting. if you have a fixed screen resolution like in the iphone, things are easier because you can set the position manually.

Thanks. I was hoping there would be something else, maybe something I missed. I was hoping Unity would become the next Flash (of the 21st Century). lol. And it just might. Full Web App Development in a 3D environment? Sounds like Next-Gen GUI to me. Go Unity!
