Re: Address Bar URI

Excellent, hopefully that is out of the way.
Does anyone want to express an opinion on the original question, which boils down to:

"Is there a problem if going to URI http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/158 (say, by clicking) in a browser then shows http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/158 in the address bar for the page it displays?"

I suggest not.

It does bring one further question (at least):
What do you display if someone goes to http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/158.html?
Possibly more controversial, as I suspect that the pragmatic answer is to display
http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/158

Best
Hugh
