If there is a command
<base href="...">
is not in the header, it is assumed to be in the header. Although in any other
browser the base reference is valid from the appearence of the command.
In the mentioned page,
http://stadt.heim.at/wien/141983/weiter/index.html
the first link ("favorite songs") does not work (and Mozilla is the only browser
where it does not work).
I claim severity "A major feature is broken" because this is against
HTML-standard!!!
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Expected Results:
resolve the link to the local server instead to the remote server set by <base
href> below.

Please try again with a newer build of Mozilla. The link works for me with a
Moz 1.4 build.
Note that this is not proper HTML, Mozilla is just trying to handle it in a
compatible manner to IE and NS4

Per the HTML standard, <base> may ONLY appear inside <head>.
That said, we've implemented the same broken behavior as the other browsers
since 1.1 (1.1 was a looong time ago).
