Cognito-forms – Hyperlinks returning 404’s

cognito-forms

I'm very new to Cognito Forms and I'm setting up my first form. I'm wanting to create a link to www.bit.ly/1xmHejd/. To do so, I create a Content field and used the Insert/Edit Link button. These are the settings for it:

After all that is done, I went to a live version of the form and clicked the link to make sure it is working. However, when clicking the link, it redirects me to https://www.cognitoforms.com/%22http://www.bit.ly/1xmHejd/%22 instead of just http://www.bit.ly/1xmHejd/. How do I remove the Cognito Forms portion of the URL? Is it possible?

It looks from the URL generated as if there is a space in front of the URL that you're entering.

Often a blank space is represented by %22 in URLs.

First thing I'd check is that there's not been an extra space pasted in there by accident.
