Weird URL Behaviour in Comments

This is a bit weird, relates to comments.

If a commentor enters their url as www.domain.com in the comments section of the Serendipity admin page the link gets appended to http://mydomain.com/www.domain.com

However if the commentor enters http://www.domain.com it works properly.

Not a biggie, just FYI. v0.8.3

Hm, this may be dependant on your Apache Settings and the baseURL you configured in Serendipity. What's your baseURL set to? Can you give me a link/domainname to reproduce?

My baseURL is http://thelazyadmin.com Its a hosted server so I am unsure what the Apache settings are set to.

Like I said its not a big deal, once the comment is approved the link works properly.

Argh, I misunderstood your question, I'm sorry! You are right, the URL only gets a prefix of "http://" once it is saved and displayed again.

So you need to resort to use http:// in front of the URL for now, that's right.
