Relative / absolute paths issue in block

Hi,

I am trying to put a link into a block. But when I click on the link it tries to go to

http://www.simongibney.com/simonpublic/admin/www.casarotto.co.uk

instead of

www.casarotto.co.uk

I think this is called a relative path/ absolute path issue.

Post Mode: HTML is on and I used

<a href="www.casarotto.co.uk">Casarotto</a>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Shane

It's a small "midnight" mistake in syntax - try

PHP Formatted Code

<a href="http://www.casarotto.co.uk">Casarotto</a>

or something like this (nouveau theme is supposed)

PHP Formatted Code

<a class="gl_mootip" href="http://www.casarotto.co.uk" alt="Casarotto link" title="Casarotto::home page of&nbsp;the&nbsp;creative agency for&nbsp;film, theatre and television will be opened in&nbsp;new&nbsp;window." target="_blank">Casarotto</a>

Have a nice day
