URLs must begin with a supported URI scheme: http:// and https:// will be supported by all browsers; irc://, ircs://, ftp://, news:, mailto: and gopher:// will require a plugin or an external application. IPv6 host-names are currently not supported.
URLs containing certain characters will display and link incorrectly unless those characters are percent-encoded. For example, a space must be replaced by %20. To encode the URL, replace these characters:
sp " ' , ; < > ? [ ] \ . : ! ? )
%20 %22 %27 %2c %3b %3c %3e %3f %5b %5d %5c %2e %3a %21 %3f %29
