Problem with a link loaded with XML

Hi everybody,

I am in my first steps in learning XML.

I have this txt file loaded using an XML Object:

<B>Client: </B>Policy Agendas Project. University of Washington
<font color="#FF9900"><a href=‘http://www.cnn.com’ target=’_blank’>[news]</a></font><BR>
<B>Objectives: </B>To create the graphic interface for the web site.
<B>Presentation Mode: </B>Web

The text is loaded into a dynamic textfield as htmlText, no problem there.

But as you can see in the code, I am including a <A> tag to open a new page with the targeted url. This does not work for some reason. Am I missing something?

Could you please help me?
Thank you very much for your great help
