The variable "SubmitURL" comes from the "action" attribute of the HTML "form" tag. This attribute can contain Javascript, for example
<form action="javascript: submit()">or other protocol like<form action="mailto:john@example.org">.We need to make a few basic checks to exclude these cases. I suggest checking the Scheme and Authority.
Other reason: The option "Return only best matching entries for an URL instead of all entries for the whole domain" doesn't work as expected when SubmitURL is Javascript. It's not logical to use Levenshtein's algorithm to compare a URL and Javascript.
