The urlize plugin might be useful to you. An example usage would be like
--

# 'check_ping' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_ping
        command_line    $USER1$/urlize
"http://www.some.host.com/path/to/moreinfo.cgi?ip=$HOSTADDRESS$&host=$HO
STALIAS$&service=PING" $USER1$/check_fping $HOSTADDRESS$ -n 10 -w500.0
30 -c1000.0 60
        }
