Hyperlinks in a workflow form - Two hyperlinks on two lines

In my workflow, I create hyperlinks for my documents uploaded to my start form to display them in a second form. My uploaded documents are saved in SharePoint Online.

 

 

I find it difficult to see that there are 2 documents. I was wondering if I can have a carriage returns between my two links? to have the 2 hyperlinks on 2 lines

I tried <br>, but the system doesn’t want to save it. When I return to my action, the <br> is no longer there. Or maybe adding more spaces between the two links? Or other characters?

This is how I create my hyperlinks:

<a href=”(file URL)”>(file name)</a>

Result into a txt variable

In my second form, I have a label with this txt variable in the text box

Hi @poirisop,

 

Can you try encapsulating the links in <p> tags?  This worked to show the form correctly for me.

@brent_read : What do you mean by encapsulating the links in <p> tags?

Hi @poirisop 

 

In the label config use something like the following:

 

<p><a href="http://www.nintex.com" target="_blank">Link 1</a></p>

<p><a href="https://www.nintex.com" target="_blank">Link 2</a></p>

@brent_read it was that simple! It works. 

P.S. I want to apologize, English is not my first language, so I didn't understand the meaning of the word “encapsulating”

Thanks a lot
