Markdown - code as link in GitHub readme

Question

I wanted to create inline span of code that links to other page.

I want to use

`MongoCollection`

and

[MongoCollection](#http://php.net/manual/en/class.mongocollection.php)

together to make a link on a code element.

I tried

[`MongoCollection`](#http://php.net/manual/en/class.mongocollection.php)

and

`[MongoCollection](#http://php.net/manual/en/class.mongocollection.php)`

Both didn't work.

Is there any way to do that?

Are you trying to add a link within a code block (using the markdown ``` or `)? — SnapShot

This question is better for either Web Apps (since it's not dealing with coding but how the Markdown works) or direct to GitHub:Support — random

Could you explain a bit more about what you mean by inline span of code? This works in Github and links the MongoCollection link to the Mongo Collection php manual page.

[MongoCollection](http://php.net/manual/en/class.mongocollection.php)

Is that what you are looking for?
