URL - do you specify only the host or the whole thing?

[richardcavell]

Hi everyone.

In libcurl, is it usual to identify the host differently from the rest 
of the URL?  eg for

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=login

does one fix the host name and then change the portion after the host 
name between calls?
