URL input

The url input uses HTML's native url input. It allows a user to enter a single URL.

Consider using text input
Although FormKit supports the url input type, the primary reason this input is provided in the HTML spec is validation. Since FormKit has its own validation system the utility provided by this input is not significant and can complicate your form submissions. In most cases you are better off using a text input with the url validation rule.

Props & Attributes

The url input has no unique props but can make use of the following universal FormKit props.
