Website field acting as required

    If a website field is not used it effectively acts as though it is a 'required' field even if the required rule is not set. If the form is submiited without an entry in the field it fails with the message 'This field is not in the correct website address format.' Clearly this makes sense as there is only http:// in the field however this would appear to be over validation. Is there any way to set the field so that it only validates the contents if there is more than http:// in the field?

    Which version of Machform are you using? There is a apparently a problem with the website field in 4.0 that is fixed in 4.1. See the message thread below:
