# commentform: Issue: "http://website"

 * Hello!
    I’ve tried various things, but I just can’t get it to work. In the comment
   form only (user)name and e-mail are required by default, right? Website is not.
   The way I set it up, it always displays “[http://website&#8221](http://website&#8221);
   if somebody doesn’t click onto the webiste input field to clear it.
 * Here’s my code in the comment.php:
 *     ```
       <p><input type="text" name="author" id="author"  value="Name" onfocus="this.value=''; this.onfocus=null;"size="22" tabindex="1" <?php if ($req) echo "aria-required='true'"; ?> /> <font color="red">*</font></p>
   
       <p><input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="Mail (will not be published)" onfocus="this.value=''; this.onfocus=null;" size="22" tabindex="2" <?php if ($req) echo "aria-required='true'"; ?> /> <font color="red">*</font></p> 
   
       <p><input type="text" name="url" id="url" value="Website" onfocus="this.value=''; this.onfocus=null;" size="22" tabindex="3" <?php if ($req) echo "aria-required='false'"; ?> />
       </p>
       ```
   
 * And that’s what I already tried, but it didn’t work:
 *     ```
       add_filter('pre_comment_author_url', 'filter_comment_url');
       function filter_comment_url($url){
           if ($url == "Website" || $url == "http://Website"){
               $url = '';
           }
           return $url;
       }
       ```
   
 * Any other suggestions?
    Thanks a lot in advance.
