The MHTML standard says that if there is both a Content-Base and a Content-Location header in the same content heading, the Content-Base has precedence over the Content-Location. Is there any problem with this? Clearly, the standard must specify which has precedence, good standard should not leave things like this undefined. "undefined" in my opinion is an ugly word in standards documents. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jacob Palme <jpalme@dsv.su.se> (Stockholm University and KTH) for more info see URL: http://www.dsv.su.se/~jpalme
