Submitting invalid or blank URLs
Hi,
I had a link submission recently where user forgot to enter the URL. By default, it gets initialized to http:// in the template and this passes the form regex check of ^\w+:

I tried a regex string from the internet for URLs as follows:

Code:
http://([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]+(/[\w- ./?%&=]*)?



This appears to work fine. I think GT should update the default setting though as this doesn't make sense the way it is.
