Steps to reproduce the issue

Create an URL Field with allowed schemes http and https
Use the field and write just test in it.

The "field" is supposing that if no one inputs http or https it might be an internal link then
Link which will be created
image

image

only if you input "another scheme" like ftp:// it will throw an error

image

We should consider that people don´t know about this "scheme" and might write in the www. Adress. But then it´s considered as an internal link, and that happens:

This issue is only more visible with custom fields, but is actually an UX issue of the Form Fieldtype itself.

This is a tricky one to get around if you allow relative links, but if you set Relative to No the scheme will be validated strictly.

I think, the same happens when you put in that urls into the url properties of an article.
