But I'm not so sure of my interpretation as of this new day. While the RFC says : fileurl = "file://" [ host | "localhost" ] "/" fpath I'm more inclined to think about it as : fileurl = "file://" [ hostpart "/"] fpath hostpart = host | "localhost" with fpath which could be /home/user/data/fileResource or C:\somedir\anotherone\fileResource ...but according to the RFC fpath cannot start with an "/" so it seems that my first interpretation was good, but I'm not convinced. Some tests on Windows could be done too. But how far one is to trust a Microsoft implementation, is just another problem. Like Dave, I would really appreciate, to have some feedback on this, to know what others think about it. And Dave, if you find it out, please let me know.
