I’m not much of a CSS guru, but is it possible to not only set a style in CSS, but also make an item a link, or at least define the href parameter in \<a\> tags?

For instance, this will have the formatting AND the newest link to the site:  
_\<span class=“mysite”\>Visit my site!\</span\>_

I would appreciate a simple “not possible” if not possible rather than being ignored. 😉
