AdamN <a...@varud.com> added the comment: I appreciate what you're saying but nobody, I guarantee nobody, is using the '//cnn.com' semantics.
Anyway, in RFC 3986 in the Syntax Components section, you'll see that the '://' is not part of scheme or netloc. I could imagine urlsplit() failing if the url was not prepended by '//' or 'scheme://', but why would being prepended with nothing cause urlsplit() to presume it's a path? Can we at least document this? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8818> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
