http client showing "unsupported protocol scheme"

[Aft nix]

This trivial code is not working...

    req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "http//x.y.info/togx.php", nil)

    if err != nil {

    log.Println(err)

    return

    }

    req.Header.Add("Accept", "text/html")

    q := req.URL.Query()

    q.Add("toga", strings.TrimSpace(strings.Split(msg, "~")[1]))

    req.URL.RawQuery = q.Encode()

    resp, err := client.Do(req)

    if err != nil {

    log.Println(err)

    return

    }

Sample input : 

    msg := "xml~1010"

Output :

    tlsserver.go:64: Get http//x.y.info/togx.php?toga=1010: unsupported protocol scheme ""

Curl session:

    $ curl -v http://x.y.info/togx.php?toga=1010

You're missing the colon between http and //
