Knockoutjs native template - To create url
knockout-2.0, knockout.js
Solution
By using the data-bind with the attr binding. You can use plain javascript in the data-bind, so also you can use default concatenation
<a data-bind="attr: {'href': 'http://' + $data.site}, text: 'visit site'"></a>
`data-bind` can be done on practically everything, as long as it is rendered by the DOM. So you can put it on `<a>` tags, or whatever you want to use
Problem
How to create a url using knockout js native templating. ``` <a href="http://" title="Visit site"> <span data-bind="text: site"></span> </a> ``` say the expression ``` <span data-bind="text: site"> ``` substitute `www.xyz.com`. I am looking a way to prefix it with `http://`. So, something like ``` <a href="http://${site}" title="Visit site"> ``` which may work with jQuery templating. In essence, I wonder we always need `<span>, <li>` etc to output the text.
