Making an hyperlink in a Textview

Question

I have a lot of text, and I want to make a link in the middle of that.

This is how it looks like, and the www.rkz.nl is what i want to be a link.

I did that in my main activity, but how do I connect that to a text part in strings.xml? — , Apr 25 '16 at 13:33

Using Xml

<TextView
android:text="Click my My Url: www.google.com"
android:id="@+id/tvUrl"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:autoLink="web">

programmatically

 final TextView tvUrl= (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvUrl);
    tvUrl.setText("Click my My Url: www.google.com");
    Linkify.addLinks(tvUrl, Linkify.WEB_URLS);

found a similar question try this Dynamically setting links to text in strings.xml or try this

TextView textView =(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView);
textView.setClickable(true);
textView.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
String text = "<a href='http://www.google.com'> Google </a>";
textView.setText(Html.fromHtml(text));

here google will be displayed as a link
