Hello Jean-Christophe, Thank you for your assistance. I appreciate it.
Using that grep pattern found only ONE relative URL in almost 6,000 HTML docs. Considering how much I have used BBEdit’s multi-file find and replace feature to make global changes to my primary virtual host over the past few weeks in order to bring it up to specs for AMP, I do find that rather suspect. In other words, I would think that there would still be at least a few more hidden relative URLs floating around on the site, and not just one. On the other hand, if there really was only one, then I must have done a better job than I thought. :) While I can just copy and paste that grep pattern and use it — which I did in fact do — I really learn nothing from the experience. Having said that, can you please take a few more minutes of your time to explain to me what each part of that grep pattern does? I understand some of it, but not all of it put together. For example, I know that ^ means the beginning of a line, that $ means the end of a line, and * is like a wild card, right? But put all together with the two brackets and the forward slash, my understanding gets lost. Thank you, my friend.
