External links incorrect

So something odd has happened. All of the external links for this section of the page are adding extra code to the link address. This is something new as this page was working just fine before.

Hear Technologies - Dealer Locator

Example: The code for EXOSOUND is <a href="www.exosound.com" target="new">www.exosound.com</a>. However when you click the link it goes to https://www.heartechnologies.com/www.exosound.com

I found a fix. I had to add https:// in front of all the links, which I've never had to do before. But it works now.

I don't know how you got away with NOT using http(s):// in your anchor tags, but it's been a requirement for some time. If a href or src does not begin with http:// or https://, the browser thinks that the link is a relative link for somewhere on the local site.

I don't know. I inherited the site so I've been fixing problems as I find them. I just know this page was working fine the other day. Ghost in the machine.
