True, but if we're in the process of adding new tags, etc, wouldn't it =
be better to add an HTTP response field generated by the server as in =
the URL line below:
HTTP/9.5 200 Document follows
Date: ...
Server: ...
URL: http://www.anchovies.com/pizza
Since the server has absolute knowledge of what it's hostname is =
(hopefully :-), this would even solve the www.mcom.com and =
www.netscape.com problem. This can also resolve the other problems we =
all have trying to guess whether the URL we requested was actually a =
file or if it was a directory and the server automatically supplied the =
default (index.html) for it
