Description

Gets or sets the name of the column that contains the URL associated with each map feature.

This enables the user to go to a Web page that is related to a map feature simply by double-clicking that feature. Typically, you store HTTP URLs in this column, but you could also specify commands with other protocols, such as FTP URLs, or even JavaScript commands. Use caution, however, with non-standard protocols such as Javascript:, as not all browsers support them.

Returns an empty string if this property does not apply. If this property is modified successfully, it automatically sets the layer's rebuild flag to True. See Rebuild for details.
