I'm using this in the form model definition:
<fd:field id="name" required="false">
<fd:label>MyForm</fd:label>
<fd:datatype base="string" />
<fd:validation>
<fd:regexp
pattern="(ftp|http|https):\/\/(\w+:{0,1}\w*@)?(\S+)(:[0-9]+)?(\/|\/([\w#!:.?+=&[EMAIL
PROTECTED]/]))?">
<fd:failmessage>Invalid URL</fd:failmessage>
</fd:regexp>
</fd:validation>
</fd:field>
