ireport - <a> html tag used for hyperlink doesn't work in Jasper Report

Question

I want to make one word of a sentence as a hyperlink. I have written it as : Click on our <a href="http://www.google.co.in"> website </a> to know the details. The markup property of the text field is also selected as "html". But the hyperlink is not created. Please help.

I know the question is pretty old, but if somebody need a code, I will add it here:

<textField>
    <reportElement positionType="Float" x="220" y="45" width="406" height="60"/>
    <textElement markup="html">
        <font fontName="Arial" size="8"/>
    </textElement>
    <textFieldExpression><![CDATA["Click on our"+"<u><font color='blue'><a href='http://www.google.co.in'>website</a></font></u>"]]> 
    </textFieldExpression>
</textField>
