Hi, I'm developing a website for a company that has all their client details on an access database, this information includes a web address which is stored as "www.somebody.com".
The problem is when I use a hyperlink column in the datagrid and bind this field to it, the URL appears as "http://customers_site/www.somebody.com" instead of http://www.somebody.com. I thought it would be simple to add "http://" to the begining of the address using the following code:

Code:
<asp:Hyperlink NavigateURL="http://" & '<%# Container.DataItem("website")%>' Text="Website" runat="server" />
But this doesn't work, I'm pretty new to asp.net so any help would be appreciated, the only other optionj is to manually add http:// to every entry in the database which I want to avoid if possible
