I typed
<a href="http://www.qtcentre.org">qtcentre</a>
into a textedit box with qdesigner, and used "ctrl+T" for testing. It showed me "qtcentre" in the box, but I could not open the hyperlink by clicking on it. Why:crying:? How could I make it?
Thanks!

May be this thread (http://www.qtcentre.org/forum/f-qt-programming-2/t-qt41how-to-make-links-open-browsers-233.html) might be useful to you :)

You could use QTextBrowser instead of QTextEdit and set openExternalLinks property to true.

You might want to update your profile that you're still using Qt3. And next time you start a thread, could you mark it as related to either Qt3 or Qt4, please?

Also, you might want to consider switching to today's technology, Qt4 that is. Qt4 has been out for some 2.5 years already. As far as I understood, Qt3 is no more being even maintained.
