Open URL without HTTP?

[ManuelD]

I have a database accesses via IWP, I want to make a button launch an ichat session by opening the following url:

aim:goim?screenname=(ichat username)

Now when i type that URL in a safari window, it does open ichat and a session connected to username. But when i use

Open URL [No dialog; "aim:goim?screenname=" & username

the Open URL script adds "http" to the URL, thus sending:

http://aim:goim?screename=(ichat username) which fails.

Any way to tell Open URL to not add "http://"?

Thanks

Figured it out, just have to add aim:// at start of URL and Open URL will leave it as is.
