adding hyperlinked text to pdf plot

For example, say I am plotting some data that is genomic and therefore maps to a specific locus on the human genome, like a gene. I was hoping to have the title of the plot display the gene name, but have it be a link so that clicking on it would take you to those coordinates on a public browser, like USCS's genome browser. So basically, I was hoping to have text in a plot generated by R function as a normal html-style link.
Just use Sweave, and put the URL in a LaTeX \href{URL}{text} tag, not in
the R code. This can be generated in R code in
\Sexp{}. It's not part of the PDF image, but it's part of the final
document.

It seems I missed the context of this post -- who is "you", and what is "something other than the URL"? I feel the tikzDevice package should be an option for the task.

Howdy,
I have read that if you put a URL in the text of a plot being saved
into pdf, the result is a functional hyperlink. I am interested in
having text in a plot that is linked to a URL, but I would like the
text to be something other than the URL. Is this possible? Thank you.
