Scan for <base> element in <head> (HTML-varieties only) and use this as document base in favor of document location. For XHTML5 and XML and SVG (really, anything other then XHTML1, HTML4 or HTML5, if the current element has an xml:base attribute, use it as the new base within the context of that element, resolving relative IRIs against the base in effect when starting to process the element. Tests 0202 and 0203 check for this in the test suite [1]. Gregg [1] http://rdfa.info/test-suite/# > Thanks --- Jan >
