Opening a drilldown link

This has been asked before, I carefully checked all the replies but none of them work.

Simple question:
I have a table with urls, i.e., strings of the form http://foo.com, and I would like, in Splunk 6.5.1, to have the website redirect to http://foo.com when clicked.

Note:

 <drilldown>
   <eval token="u">replace($click.value2$, "http://", ""</eval>
   <link> ![CDATA[http://$u$]]</link>   
 </drilldown>

does not work, even when CDATA is removed.

If you use the special '|n' after the token, it turns off character escaping and then it should work and that way you don't have to know beforehand if it is https or http:

<drilldown>
     <link target="_blank">$row.link|n$</link>
</drilldown>

Though what is amusing is the documenation also shows a '|u' which you would think whould be used here in this instance but I can only get it to work with '|n'

For me, this works fine:

<dashboard>
  <label>_temp drilldown to url</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>| makeresults | eval url="http://google.com"</query>
          <earliest>0</earliest>
          <latest></latest>
        </search>
        <drilldown>
          <eval token="u">replace($row.url$, "http://", "")</eval>
          <link target="_blank">
            http://$u$
          </link>
        </drilldown>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>

I don't see why it wouldn't. You should either use $row.url$ (or whichever column contains your url) so that each click inside a row uses the value of that column, or you should limit the drilldown link to clicks on that column with a condition like this:

<dashboard>
  <label>_temp drilldown to url</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <search>
          <query>| makeresults | eval url="http://google.com"</query>
          <earliest>0</earliest>
          <latest></latest>
        </search>
        <drilldown>
          <condition field="url">
            <eval token="u">replace($click.value2$, "http://", "")</eval>
            <link target="_blank">
              http://$u$
            </link>
          <condition>
        </drilldown>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>

try like below,

<drilldown>
<eval token="u">replace($row.fieldnamefromtableforurl$, "http://", "")</eval>

<![CDATA[ http://$u$ ]]>

</drilldown>

Thanks for your answer, I tried your approach but it does not make the table entries clickable, I guess it might be a syntax error.
