I haven't added the value="http://" on the add form -- although I've been meaning to -- but I did add
http:// as the default for the URL field. Seing as how 99.99999% of the links in my database have been added by none other than me, this is pretty good for the time being...
One thing I keep forgetting to ask, which this conversation has reminded me, is there some guideline to the validation rules? For instance, I added a priority field and followed widgetz' instructions for what to place in the validation field. It worked, but I really didn't know what I was doing... Are the validation rules all standard Perl (I would assume so), or are they specific to Links SQL? That might make a nice FAQ item -- a list of validation rules and what they signify.
