A span tag is rendered in the page, as a place holder in the document,
and is ultimately replaced by the hyperlink. You cannot view the
rendered HTML page and see the hyperlink tags. You have to use the View
Source Chart plug-in for Firefox or highlight a section of the page,
then right click and choose "View Selection Source". Alternatively, you
can use the DOM inspector to see the Nodes inserted by the widgets.
If you're creating your own theme, it's possible that the hyperlink
widget has not found it's HTML template. Although, I don't have enough
information to know what's happening in your environment.
