Mani,
The RFC actually says (Section 3.2):
"The authority component is preceded by a double slash ("//") and is
terminated by the next slash ("/"), question mark ("?"), or number
sign ("#") character, or by the end of the URI."
To be fully conformant with the RFC, I suppose '#' needs to be added
to the parser as authority terminating delimiter.
Cheers,
Vladimir "Bob" Zakharychev
