HowTo : Force http:// and check valid URL

[mierlp]

Hi,

 

I would like to create a simple browser where the user can surf to a company website

from within my applications.

 

I use the URLFrame example. But when you enter :

www.unigui.com WITHOUT http:// then the urlframe thinks you want to open a local file

 

if i use it with HTTP:// it works

 

So...how can i :

• check if there's Always HTTP:// in the string when a user enters a url
• or how to force it there will Always be HTTP:// into the string.
•

Did you try to use a simple Pos() function ?

Hi,

 

Try:

...
if Pos('http://',lowercase(AURL)) = 0 then
  AURL := 'http://' + AURL;

UniURLFrame1.URL := AURL;
...

Best regards.
