HttpMethodBase can not handle specific URIs in www.msn.com 
-----------------------------------------------------------

         Key: HTTPCLIENT-580
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-580
     Project: Jakarta HttpClient
        Type: Bug

  Components: HttpClient  
    Versions: 3.0 Final    
 Environment: Windows XP, JDK 1.5
    Reporter: Joe Lin


It seems that HttpClient can not handle the following URLs that is in 
www.msn.com page:

http://stb.msn.com//i/2C/27C8847D1C2D67C09FC7B4D53B43FB.jpg

Notice the double slashes after the host part of the URL. 

I created a GetMethod
String uri = "//i/2C/27C8847D1C2D67C09FC7B4D53B43FB.jpg
";
GetMethod get = new GetMethod(uri);

I then invoke 
client.executeMethod with a the host of HostConfiguration being set at 
stb.msn.com

Somehow the setURI(URI uri) method in HttpMethodBase does not set it correctly. 
 And the actual request sent out from HttpClient becomes 
http://stb.msn.com/i/2C/27C8847D1C2D67C09FC7B4D53B43FB.jpg. Noticed the double 
slashes in the original request now becomes a single slash and I got a 404.
