Subject:   Replacing text with forward slash in vi

Here's a tough one!

I want to replace the two dots ``..'' with a URL address like
``http://website.address.com'' in the following text:

"../path/to/website/index.html"

The vi command would be...

:s/\../http://website.address.com

but, the two forward slashes following "http:" confuse vi's replace command.

Any ideas?
