Simple, search for the next URL!
(defun look-for-url ()
(interactive)
(let ((url nil))
(while (not (setq url (thing-at-point 'url t)))
(forward-char 1)) ; will fail at EOB
(w3m-goto-url url) )) ; so here the URL is always fine
Probably searching can be done more efficiently
tho, e.g. a regexp search for the next URL...
