For example the html

<a href="www.yahoo.com">free e-mail and news</a>

Is treated relative but 

<a href="http://www.yahoo.com">free e-mail and news</a>

links to yahoo.com. Is that all there is to it, the only way a link is absolute is if it starts with http or https?

    Yes. Please Refer to the below link, which explains the Hyperlinks syntax.

    HTML BASICS: HYPERLINK SYNTAX – ABSOLUTE, RELATIVE AND ROOT-RELATIVE

    Absolute hyperlinks are complete addresses that contain all the
    elements of a URL. They always start with some version of http://
    followed by the domain name (for example, http://www.designisphilosophy.com)
    and optionally a page/folder. Absolute hyperlinks are used when
    linking to pages outside of the current site that have a different
    domain name.
