  The code you tried to pase in your first post is this:
  <a href="http://support.wordpress.com/links/email-links/">Links</a>
  That’s the correct form for a link. If you want it to open in a new window, it must be:
  <a href="URL_HERE" target="_blank">TEXT_HERE</a>
  If you want several links in a text widget, you must enclose them in the code for unordered lists – see here:
