scheme://host/dir/dir/dir/file;atts !!!!
NO NO NO NO NO !!!!
It breaks on any system with version numbers. The semicolon is used on
most systems.
Even if you arn't lucky enough to have VMS there are still lots of systems
that have version numbers, code management systems for example.
The scheme :-
scheme://host:port/dir/dir/dir/file//atts
Does work however and is backward compatible. Since a null directory is
never valid.
This scheme is very usefull when trying to URL a system with two variable
fields. A particular element within a database file for example.
So the FTP stuff becomes :-
ftp://host/dir/dir/dir/file//Content-Type=image/jpeg;Content-Language=Swedish
