There was a bug in URLValidator that made it fail for even simple URLs
like http://www.google.com, so I had to dump it and use a regular
expression mask instead. (The URLValidator has since been patched and
works fine).

Since javascript can easily do regular expressions, you can use this
regular expression to check your URLs. I went through the HTTP URL
specification and attempted to include everything I could see for the
regexp. The only problem is that it allows any protocol, even fictional
ones (like joke://abc.com/).

(Yes, this is a very long regular expression. Hopefully, it will come
out on one line).
