    # Validates whether the value of the specified attribute matches the format of an URL,
    # as defined by RFC 2396. See URI#parse for more information on URI decompositon and parsing.
    #
    # This method doesn't validate the existence of the domain, nor it validates the domain itself.
    #
    # Allowed values include http://foo.bar, http://www.foo.bar and even http://foo.
    # Please note that http://foo is a valid URL, as well http://localhost.
    # It's up to you to extend the validation with additional constraints.

    # validates_format_of :ftp, :schemes => [:ftp, :http, :https]

    # ==== Configurations
    #
    # * <tt>:schemes</tt> - An array of allowed schemes to match against (default is <tt>[:http, :https]</tt>)
    # * <tt>:message</tt> - A custom error message (default is: "is invalid").
    # * <tt>:allow_nil</tt> - If set to true, skips this validation if the attribute is +nil+ (default is +false+).
    # * <tt>:allow_blank</tt> - If set to true, skips this validation if the attribute is blank (default is +false+).
    # * <tt>:on</tt> - Specifies when this validation is active (default is <tt>:save</tt>, other options <tt>:create</tt>, <tt>:update</tt>).
    # * <tt>:if</tt> - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
    # occur (e.g. <tt>:if => :allow_validation</tt>, or <tt>:if => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step > 2 }</tt>). The
    # method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
    # * <tt>:unless</tt> - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
    # not occur (e.g. <tt>:unless => :skip_validation</tt>, or <tt>:unless => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step <= 2 }</tt>). The
    # method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
