question regarding relative URLs

I am trying to do the following:
extract a URL - U - from a page
using base information, determine the absolute URL using U
Example:
extracted URL: http://www.stanford.com
base : http://www.db.stanford.com
I am looking for a package that will figure out that the extracted url
is absolute and thus need not be extended. In cases where the url is
relative, I would like it to be extended by the base.
any suggestions on a package that will enable me to do the above.
thanks much.
