I have a dynamic text box that is populated from an xml file. Within the xml file is it possible to add a textual link that will appear in the dynamic text box as a clickable link?

XML structure:  
is it possible to use:

```auto
<solutions2>
  <pic>image2.jpg</pic>
    <header>Keep It Simple</header>
    <copy><![CDATA[The front-runner in medical imaging cameras had a big problem – its newest, state-of-the-art camera relied on a lens and filter assembly for accurate and stable color rendition. Customers were beginning to return product because the viewed images were not true – images were off-color and color drifted over time. Access Optics brought its unique expertise in thin film coatings to bear on the problem. The results were picture perfect. <a href = "#">read more</a>]]></copy>
    <link>read more</link>
  </solutions2>

```

…because the entire a href tag is shown in the flash piece… the reason the link tag is not used is that I would like the read more at the end of the text, and the text will change according to length of xml fed text… The textfields are render html.
