Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.7) Gecko/20011221 Composer adds "<base" tag to web page making all links *local* links I don't know when this happened (between milestone 0.9.7 and 0.9.9?), but the top of my webpage (see URL above) has the following line in it: </style><base href="file:///C:/WINDOWS/Profiles/Peter/My%20Documents/My%20Web%20Pages/Lairo.com/%21CURRENT/kassandra.html"></head><body nosave="" alink="#ff0000" vlink="#551a8b" link="#0000ee" bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> <a name="TOP"></a> This causes me to think the webpage is working, but others keep telling me they don't see anything. VERY frunstrating! For some strange reason *I* can see the page OK also from my work PC, even though that path doesn't exist there. What makes this even more infuriating is that the context "properties" of an image shows a HTTP address, when in reality, it seems to be a local path (C:\windows\bla-bla\something.jpg). I sure hope Compser isn't allowed to be broken like this for Mozilla1.0. :(
After some midair collisions... This is a dup of bug 125070.
