		## Methods
		```javascript
		/*
		* @Function isUri(value)
		*
		* @Synopsis is the value a well-formed uri?
		* @Description
		Returns the untainted URI if the test value appears to be well-formed. Note that
		you may really want one of the more practical methods like is_http_uri or is_https_uri,
		since the URI standard (RFC 3986) allows a lot of things you probably don't want.
		* @Arguments
		* value The potential URI to test.
		*
		* @Returns The untainted RFC 3986 URI on success, undefined on failure.
		* @Notes
		This function does not make any attempt to check whether the URI is accessible
		or 'makes sense' in any meaningful way. It just checks that it is formatted
		correctly.

		/*
		* @Function isHttpUri(value)
		* @Synopsis is the value a well-formed HTTP uri?
		* @Description
		Specialized version of isUri() that only likes http:// urls. As a result, it can
		also do a much more thorough job validating. Also, unlike isUri() it is more
		concerned with only allowing real-world URIs through. Things like relative
		hostnames are allowed by the standards, but probably aren't wise. Conversely,
		null paths aren't allowed per RFC 2616 (should be '/' instead), but are allowed
		by this function.

		This function only works for fully-qualified URIs. /bob.html won't work.
		See RFC 3986 for the appropriate method to turn a relative URI into an absolute
		one given its context.

		Returns the untainted URI if the test value appears to be well-formed.

		Note that you probably want to either call this in combo with is_https_uri(). i.e.

		if(isHttpUri(uri) \|\| isHttpsUri(uri)) console.log('Good');

		or use the convenience method isWebUri which is equivalent.

		`
		isHttpsUri(value)
		`
		accepts value as string to be checked as HTTPS url
		returns undefined if is not url, returns RFC 3986 url if valid
		* @Arguments
		* value The potential URI to test.
		*
		* @Returns The untainted RFC 3986 URI on success, undefined on failure.
		* @Notes
		This function does not make any attempt to check whether the URI is accessible
		or 'makes sense' in any meaningful way. It just checks that it is formatted
		correctly.

		`
		isWebUri(value)

		accepts value as string to be checked as HTTP or HTTPS url
		returns undefined if is not url, returns RFC 3986 url if valid


		/*
		* @Function isHttpsUri(value)
		* @Synopsis is the value a well-formed HTTPS uri?
		* @Description
		See is_http_uri() for details. This version only likes the https URI scheme.

		/*
		* @Function isWebUri(value)
		* @Synopsis is the value a well-formed HTTP or HTTPS uri?
		* @Description
		This is just a convenience method that combines isHttpUri and isHttpsUri
