Title: if protocol isn't part of url, it is relative

Right now if the href is not relative, i.e http://example.com/login it will try to navigate to http://example.com/http://example.com/login... The navigation should only happen if it is relative, meaning no protocol is provided.

This should probably be switched to checking for any protocol :// to prevent from capturing links to external websites for itunes links as well.
