Sorry should have been clearer it was simply writing a link to the box rather than markup i.e http://example.com which will render as a clickable link.

Markup is escaped, but stripping out would be better as this is received otherwise

<a href="http://google.com">google god of the ether</a> insert escape slashes before double quotes

I’ll have a play around with the require statement positioning
