It does but, Max, I am totally baffled by URI's. I wish there was some good
documentation on them, especially on platform differences. I've tried
reading the spec on them at the w3.org site but the spec is
incomprehensible to anyone who is not immersed in the subject.
Currently the only way I can get URI's to work is by trial-and-error.
