When using exp:weblog:entries to create an anchor from some custom fields,
<a href="http://{link_url}" title="{link_description}">{title}</a>EE expands {link_url} into a complete anchor tag, so it blows up the anchor tag I’m trying to construct.
How do I get EE to just output the URL without creating an anchor link? thanks

Maybe I’m misunderstanding the actual problem, but did you turn off auto links in the weblog preferences for that weblog?
Go to Weblog Administration > Weblog Management > Your Weblog, then choose “Weblog Posting Preferences” and make sure “Automatically turn URLs and email addresses into links?” is set to No.
Hope that helps!
