If you want to apply URL formatting only to a single column, you can use:
data = [dict(name="Google", url="http://www.google.com"),
dict(name="Stackoverflow", url="http://stackoverflow.com")]
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
def make_clickable(val):
# target _blank to open new window
return '<a target="_blank" href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42263946/{}">{}</a>'.format(val, val)
df.style.format({'url': make_clickable})
