IE corrects them. resulting in tons of winDAUS doing their web-pages with winword (yak!) making links like that: <a href="\somepath\index.htm">bla</a> while they mean <a href="/somepath/index.html">bla</a> They just don't see it, because IE corrects the code before giving up... Should mozilla do so too? (if it should open a pop-up saying "yak! write a mail to the webmaster of this page telling him you will break his legs if he doesn't correct his code... " kidding... ;-)
see bug 32895, Mozilla did convert them on Windows, the bug was about removed that converversion

This isn't a duplicate of bug 32895. It's the kind of report that results from fixing bug 32895, which Andreas Otte notes should go to Tech Evangelism. I note, though, that there's no particular site mentioned at which evangelical efforts could be directed. So this should probably be resolved INVALID.

A afternoon of fun gave us that guy offering web-page Creation : (sorry in German, but verry amusing though; he improved a bit since we found him the first time ;-) http://www.a1-homepage-service.de/ and here I found it Again: http://www.churchrave.de/ one should send a letter with type 405-flour to the IE developers;-)
