The basic problem is that a page often has more than one URI and the one that is in the address bar is not necessarily the one that is used in links within the page. > current URI, but also style links based on directory level. Only some types of URI are hierarchical. Of those, only some use "/" as a hierarchy level delimiter. For http: scheme URLs, the path components don't necessarily represent directories (and, unfortunately, there are a lot content management systems that produce completely flat structures). -- David Woolley Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want. RFC1855 says there should be an address here, but, in a world of spam, that is no longer good advice, as archive address hiding may not work.
