We actually need the real URL of the page where the link is and information
about which link there is meant. That way we can also access the real URL of
the linked page, where the problem probably is. Oh, and _please_ stop using
domain names like www.url.com if you don't _really_ mean the real domain
name! There's a good old convention (documented in RFC 2142) of using the
top-level pseudo-domain "example" (e.g., www.foo.example) or the
second-level pseudo-domain "example.com" (e.g., www.example.com) for dummy
domain names in examples. They are guaranteed to be and remain dummy (never
actually assigned).
However, consider first whether it is a good idea to jump into the middle of
a page with a link. I say it often is, but Jakob Nielsen seems to have a
different view, and he mostly knows usability better than I do; see
