How to add a complex link?

I have a website that has javascript in it to open a modal. I need to add this code to my link in hype. How can I add the entire <a> tag to the link not just a URL?

I think you need to explain a bit more.

Wha link, what's the modal showing.
What's the js.

Can you post an example/ show the site ?

I agree it would be good to explain more. The simple explanation though for adding arbitrary HTML (like an <a> tag) to Hype would be:

  1. Insert a rectangle element
  2. Remove styling that you might not want
  3. Choose the 'Edit > Edit Element's Inner HTML' menu item (alternatively double-click the element to edit, then hit the pencil icon)
  4. Add your HTML to the pop over window that appears

A couple things to note:

  • You probably do not want to choose the HTML Widget element; this is an iframe and separated from the page so it won't have access to javascript on the parent page
  • Likewise do not embed your hype export in an iframe, as this would lead to the same problem
