Thanks.

There are many permutations and combinations … also how strictly you are conforming to the standard spec is something to worry about
What are the protocols supported … is it only http … or https, rmtp etc as well
Consider things like domains and subdomains … http://www.google.com and http://www.maps.google.com are valid
Presence or absence of trailing slash
Non-standard port … http://www.example.com:8800
Deep path after the host … http://www.example.com/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/i.html
URL Parameters … http://www.test.com?pageid=123&testid=1524
URL encoding … and how are URL are encoded within a URL if they are the part of the parameters
Anchor tags … http://www.test.com/do.html#A
Presence of special characters … if any
handling white spaces
Max and Min size of a URL
Interesting!!
Have you investigated in existing libraries which let you validate the URLs
