 Another method that has become common in recent years is
 
 <a href="//www.freebsd.org/blah/blah">
 
 Which will keep the current protocol, be that HTTP or HTTPS
 
 Although I am not sure how some of the more basic browsers like lynx
 might handle that. Google et all use it for including javascript to
 avoid 'mixed content'.
