title: Href while running localhost not working
body: <p>so im designing a website using <strong>html, php,</strong> all that fun stuff &amp; im trying to make <strong>facebook, twitter, youtube &amp; instagram</strong> links that will open a new tab and take you to the website. but at the moment the URL is going to <code>localhost/horizonphotography/www.facebook.com</code> instead of opening the new tab and THEN going to <code>www.facebook.com</code>.</p>
  
  <p>heres my <strong>HTML</strong> </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div class="social"&gt;      
      &lt;a href="www.facebook.com" target="_blank"&gt;
      &lt;img border="0" alt="Facebook" src="img/facebook.png" width="50" height="50"&gt;
      &lt;/a&gt;
  
      &lt;a href="www.twitter.com" target="_blank"&gt;
      &lt;img border="0" alt="twitter" src="img/twitter.png" width="50" height="50"&gt;
      &lt;/a&gt;
  
      &lt;a href="www.youtube.com" target="_blank"&gt;
      &lt;img border="0" alt="youtube" src="img/youtube.png" width="50" height="50"&gt;
      &lt;/a&gt;
  
      &lt;a href="www.instagram.com" target="_blank"&gt;
      &lt;img border="0" alt="instagram" src="img/instagram.png" width="50" height="50"&gt;
      &lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and my <strong>css</strong> 'if' required.   </p>
  
  <pre><code>.social {
      position: fixed;
      bottom: 0;
      right: 7%;
      width: 300px;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>thanks in advance!</p>
