No type property in URL.  From RFC 2426:

3.6.8 URL Type Definition

   To: ietf-mime-directory at imc.org

   Subject: Registration of text/directory MIME type URL

   Type name: URL

   Type purpose: To specify a uniform resource locator associated with
   the object that the vCard refers to.

   Type encoding: 8bit

   Type value: A single uri value.

   Type example:

        URL:http://www.swbyps.restaurant.french/~chezchic.html
