Details

The url "http:/directory" lacks the hostname component. Mozilla, instead, thinks
that directory is the hostname. This is wrong according to the standards. This
worked in Netscape Navigator 4.x.
Actually, Mozilla's behavior is correct accoding to the standards.  Full
discussion is in bug 32966
