Hm, that really sounds unhandy. As mentioned, I can simply use <a href="profile">link</a> and the "profile" gets appended to the full url. It doesn't matter in that case if there is a trailing slash or not. Why does Javascript has that problem and standard HTML not?! Does someone know of a good URL library for Javascript (or jQuery)?
