When an entry in the guestbook is be done and an url of someones website is entered, the link is not properly working. It seems that there has to be made a correction as by moving the mouse over the link without clicking it shows the following [http://www.actualwebsite_adress.com/guestwebsite_adress.com]
Best,
J.

I noticed this also, but if the user puts http:// in front, then it works fine.
Maybe a suggestion to let EE check this? And eventualy puts the http in front when missing?

this would follow along the same lines as checking for (and adding if needed) a trailing '/'... the only thing i can see, in this case, would be how to check for the difference between "http://" and "https://"... some sites are operated from secure sessions...

FWIW: any web site url should be being started with "http://" or "https://" anyway... users that don't do this probably shouldn't even be trying to post uri's ;)
