Creating clickable website URL field

Hi,

I want to allow my members to insert their website URL.

How can I make this field display as a clickable link on their profile page?   At the moment I use text, which displays as text of course.

Is there a PHP check I can put into the field to check it's a valid URL, and then HTML it into a clickable link?

Or a plugin?

Thanks!

My co-admin found this free mod, I think on expertzzz.com, "Embed Playlist to Profile."  It creates an editable block via the profile custom page that you can put HTML in.  The intent is for embeddable playlists, but you can use it for anything including hyperlinks and use it as a jumping off point for further mods.

Yes, that is the right link - where I banged my head against the wall until okweb rescued me, and if you are using D7 see this link - more of less the same thing but the other stuff (skype, etc) has been extracted out: http://www.boonex.com/unity/forums/#topic/Website-link-in-php-block.htm
