Afternoon all
Standard practice at the beeb has always been to use link urls relative to
the root:
href="/radio4/today"
Clearly these are of little use in a microformat (or any attempt to use html
as an api)
So my question is - are there any problems we should be aware of in
switching to full path urls? One or 2 developers have mentioned the
possibility of creating unnecessary connections but no-one seems sure
I've googled around but all the absolute/relative url discussions are web
tutorials from 1995 so thought u might be a good port of call...
The reason that there has been little discussion is that the rules for
dealing with this are well understood and settled. This document [1]
will give you everything you need -- written in 1995.
Regards, etc...
