I just tested this. Internet Explorer indeed takes note of of changes to <base>. (Either changing .href or adding a <base> element.) Ouch! This means that resolving of the URI has to happen on invoking send() I suppose using the then current base URI (where to find that base URI should be the same). Does anyone see any potential problems with this? -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
