It looks like the distribution URL could use the same fix as the other place
that the web address is entered in. When a URL starts with www instead of
http:// the link is changed to
http://dev.nceas.ucsb.edu/knb/www.calliebowdish.com/SnowyPlover.htm on the
webpage

<distribution scope="document">
<online>
<url function="download">www.calliebowdish.com/SnowyPlover.htm</url>
</online>
</distribution>

The html file that gets generated is correct but the browser adds the domain
address to href="www ... " type of references. If they have "http://" such as 
href="http://www..."
then the domain address is not added by the browser

If someone does not put the http:// as part of their address in the
distribution URL we need to add it. Something like this documented fix will do
that.

Here is the dp that has the problem
http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/knb/metacat/nceas.889.1/nceas and the section
that doesn't work
