- otherayden 1y agoThank you for the feedback, I will fix this!
- otherayden 1y agoFixed! You can now throw urls with or without the protocol (protocol is the "http(s)://" part of the URL) and it will work!
- AStonesThrow 1y agoThe protocol or scheme is the "http" or "https" keyword. The colon is a separator. The "//" introduces the "authority component" or host. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL#Syntax https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL#Syntax Whatever the user is "throwing at you" if it doesn't have these things in the front, it is not a "URL". It is not even a "protocol-relative URL".
