Is using /file.php in an anchor link ALWAYS going to resolve to http://thedomain.com/file.php?
from my testing, this is true, but i just want to make sure it is a standard and not just coincidence that all browsers ive tested it in it works
basically, i have a page on
http://domain.com/sub/dirs/1/2/3/page.htm
开发者_开发问答
which has
<a href="/home.php">
will that always link to
http://domain.com/home.php
?
and of course will linking to /sub/dirs/1/2/3/page.htm
link to itself (ie, link to http://domain.com/sub/dirs/1/2/3.htm) ??
thanks
Yes, that's correct. The leading /
means that the link is relative to the top level domain name. Without a leading /
, the link is relative to the same directory level as the page where the link appears.
RFC 2396 (Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI): Generic Syntax) contains the following in section 5:
A relative reference beginning with a single slash character is termed an absolute-path reference, as defined by
<abs_path>
in Section 3.
