If you don't mind, what function does the addition of a forward slash at
the end of a link perform?
Well, it seems to alleviate A Williams's problem with his email client
confusing the link as a "file." Secondly, it removes a step at the web
server - prevents it having to do a redirect. I always add a slash after
the TLD if I'm only linking to a domain name or a directory. See:
<http://webdesign.about.com/od/beginningtutorials/f/why-urls-end-in-
slash.htm>
If you send a link to a specific page, do not add a slash.
http://example.com/subdir/thispage.html gets NO slash.
Putting a slash at the end does not fix the problem, in fact some pages
will have a slash and the end already. The only way to get it to send is
to remove the link from the attachments list window. I still do not know
why SM put a link in the attachments list.
Thank you,
Danny
