How to hide the target URLs on links

How do I specify the text that displays for a link…instead of the actual URL?

For example, “For more information, click [u]here[/u].” In PDF output, I want [u]here[/u] to be a link to http://www.example.com, but I don't want the URL displayed as part of the sentence. (Our URLs are really long!)

I have XMetaL Author Enterprise 6.0 outputting as Enhanced PDF via RenderX XEP.

Thanks.

Click the text inside the xrf and just start typing. The link is defined in the href attribute but the text that is shown in the text inside the start and end tag.

That seems obvious now. Thanks for your answer.
