    Hey all, got what should be a particularly simple question for anyone that has a clue (obviously I don't).

    Got this line of code that pulls a list of URL's from the database for display, just lists the referring sites from where a visitor came from for my forums. However I'm trying to figure out how to add a rel="nofollow" to each URL (trying to avoid any potential outbound links to a bad nieghborhood even if I was found through one).

    
'URL' => '<a href="' . $row['referrer_url'] .'">' . $url_name . '</a>',
    Code (markup):
    I'm just not sure of what characters of the rel="nofollow" need to be escaped and how without breaking the script.

    TIA
