Is it not true that everything past the hash (#alice) is not transmitted back to the server when a browser clicks on a hyperlink ? If that is true, then the server would not be able to serve anything different if a browser clicked upon http://example.com/foaf.rd <http://example.com/foaf.rdf#alice>or if they clicked upon http://example.com/foaf.rd <http://example.com/foaf.rdf#alice>#alice . If that is true, and it probably isn't, then is not the Semantic Web crippled from using that techniqe to distinguish between resources and at the same time hyper linking between those different resources? Ok, you can stop laughfing now. -- Seth Russell Thoughts about The New Semantic Web http://fastblogit.com/seth/ www.speaktomecatalog.com
