Examples of Resolving Relative URLs, Part 3

This document has an embedded base URL of
   Content-Base: http://a/b/c/d;p=1/2?q
the relative URLs should be resolved as shown below. For this test page, I am particularly interested in testing whether "/" in parameters is or is not treated as part of the path hierarchy.

I will need your help testing the examples on multiple browsers. What you need to do is point to the example anchor and compare it to the resolved URL in your browser (most browsers have a feature by which you can see the resolved URL at the bottom of the window/screen when the anchor is active).

Synopsis

RFC 1808 specified that the "/" character within parameter information does not affect the hierarchy within URL parsing. It would appear that it does in current practice. This implies that the parameters should be part of each path segment and not outside the path. The URI draft has been written accordingly.
