How to open a URL from a text box with Unity Text Mesh Pro ?

Opening a website (URL) by clicking on a text in a Text Mesh Pro Text box is simple! It works by utilizing the link-tag provided by Text Mesh Pro and we need to check if the tagged element at our mouse position actually contains a link tag, for which we will use a Link Handler we created in a different video.
Just add a hand full lines of code to the LinkHandler we created in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6vYyCahLr8 (that one teaches you how to make parts of your text clickable. If you really only need it for a link, just remove the event at the bottom of the script.)
Making clickable URLs is only one of the possible use cases of the link tag!
