This behavior was part of RFC 1808 (Section 4) which is about 16 years old, so every major browser should (and does) support this. Sadly, there’s a bug with IE7 and -8 that will make them download the resources twice if a protocol-relative URL is used on a link or @import – which shouldn’t be … Read more
The slugs make the URL more user-friendly and you know what to expect when you click a link. Search engines such as Google, rank the pages higher if the searchword is in the URL.
The script should do these things: Detect if the current URL is already to the compact site. Load the compact version of the page if necessary. Beware of “anchor” URLS (they end with “fragments” or “hashes” (#…) ) and account for them. Keep the unwanted pages out of the browser history so that the back … Read more
I have just tried this. What you attempted to do is correct. In HTML if you are writing a link the & characters should be encoded as & You would only encode the & as %26 if you wanted a parameter value to contain an ampersand. I just wrote a simple HTML page that contained … Read more
First, be sure to replace Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath= with ReportServer?. In other words, instead of this: http://server/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=/ReportFolder/ReportSubfolder/ReportName Use this syntax: http://server/ReportServer?/ReportFolder/ReportSubfolder/ReportName Parameters can be referenced or displayed in a report using @ParameterName, whether they’re set in the report or in the URL. You can attach parameters to the URL with &ParameterName=Value. To hide the toolbar where parameters … Read more
File extensions are not used because of the idea that URIs (and therefore URLs) should be independent of implementation – if you want to access the CDC’s information about food safety, you should be able to go to https://www.cdc.gov/foodsafety (for example). Whether the CDC’s servers are using PHP or Python or Perl doesn’t matter to … Read more
Check out the W3C’s list of HTML attributes, there’s a “type” column in there and just look for URI types. And of course the HTML 5 version of that list is useful too (edit: updated link for HTML 5.2 here) So for HTML4 we’ve got: <a href=url> <applet codebase=url> <area href=url> <base href=url> <blockquote cite=url> … Read more
You can do all the URL encoding you want with the net/url module. It doesn’t break out the individual encoding functions for the parts of the URL, you have to let it construct the whole URL. Having had a squint at the source code I think it does a very good and standards compliant job. … Read more
Valid to the URI RFC Likely acceptable to your server-side framework/code The URI RFC doesn’t mandate a format for the query string. Although it is recognized that the query string will often carry name-value pairs, it is not required to (e.g. it will often contain another URI). 3.4. Query The query component contains non-hierarchical data … Read more
In Application.init(): mount(new MountedMapperWithoutPageComponentInfo(“/subpage”, MyPage.class)); with the following Mapper class: public class MountedMapperWithoutPageComponentInfo extends MountedMapper { public MountedMapperWithoutPageComponentInfo(String mountPath, Class<? extends IRequestablePage> pageClass) { super(mountPath, pageClass, new PageParametersEncoder()); } @Override protected void encodePageComponentInfo(Url url, PageComponentInfo info) { // do nothing so that component info does not get rendered in url } @Override public Url mapHandler(IRequestHandler … Read more
