Need help with a hyperlink...or href

Question

See more:

I want to redirect to a page when a user clicks on a button.... However the webpage that the user needs to be redirected to does not have an https:// or a www. If I insert those in front of the URL then it displays a problem....

If I click on it without the HTTPS it goes to:

http://localhost:52306/Home/km.tff-data.com

and it gives an IIS 8.0 Error 404 Not found...

Now if I add the https://... it takes me to...
a page not found....

however when I enter the URL into the webpage it works fine...

What I have tried:

HTML

<div class="col-md-6">
    <a href="km.tff-data.com" target="_blank" class="btn btn-warning" style="width:100%; height:75px">
        Delivery Matrix
    </a>
</div>

<div class="col-md-6">
    <a target="_blank" class="btn btn-warning" style="width:100%; height:75px">
        Delivery Matrix
    </a>
</div>

Uhm... I cant just paste my code it turns it into a hyperlink... I have tried an Href with https://km.tff-data.com
and just href with km.tff-data.com...

these are not the real links to the website... I cannot give out real links because they have data that cant be out there...

Have you tried prefixing with "http://" instead of "https://"?
Are you sure the "target" supports https?

Sounds like the answer to me. :)

<a href="http://km.tff-data.com" ...

You have to HTML-encoded your code blocks, and wrap them in <pre>...</pre> tags. Unfortunately, the formatting buttons aren't available for the "What have you tried" section, so you have to do this manually.

I've updated your question, and the code block now shows correctly.

Just put the full url in. Where's the problem?
