Sure, it could be anything. But I bet you $10 it’s Apache.
You’re assuming, of course, that the web server is bug-free. :)
No, I’m assuming nothing whatsoever about the web server, is my point. I’m assuming that the web browser is working right, because transforming relative URLs is the browser’s job.
I promise this is how HTTP and HTML work!
Oh yeah ? well u–
uhm…
Shit, I got nothin’. You’re right. Asshole. ;)
So I get a valuable cash prize, right? That’s how it works?
True story: The more forceful I get about technical matters, the more I start wondering whether I’m actually right. Before I made my first post, I read the HTML spec and confirmed it worked that way. Before making the second, I also went and read the RFC for URIs. Before making the third, I went and read the HTTP spec and also did some testing.
So yeah, I’m pretty confident at this point.
Yeah, I’ve done that before… a lot.
I can’t believe I didn’t, like, immediately realize this, though. Gawd, I feel like an amateur, now.
I bury my head in shame.
Hmm… so what’s the matter, Cubit? Did you or did you not type a leading slash in your initial version that didn’t work? Does removing the ./ prefix work now, or does it not? Confess!
