[BUG] Webhook creation fails when URL contains port number.

[Guus der Kinderen]

Creation of a webhook fails if the endpoint_url value is a URL that contains a port number. In the example below, I used port number 80. Other port numbers do not work either.

There is no working around this through the website. When creating a webhook via https://www.eventbrite.com/myaccount/webhooks/add/ a validation message pops up that reads: "Please enter a valid URL."

Not using a port number allows you to successfully create a webhook (through both approaches).

Obviously, a port number is an optional yet valid component in the Authority Part of the URL syntax. In our case, it's highly desirable, as our integration point is an API that we expose (and not one of the websites that are themselves clients of our API).
