Subject: [webmaster] Extra slash in links on archives.postgresql.org
To: webmaster(at)postgresql(dot)org
The links on the per-message pages at archives.postgresql.org have an extra
slash. Consider `/pgsql-hackers/2009-05/msg00425.php'. The link to this page
from `/pgsql-hackers/2009-05/threads.php' is:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2009-05/msg00425.php
But the link from `/pgsql-hackers/2009-05/msg00422.php' (previous message in the
thread) is:
http://archives.postgresql.org//pgsql-hackers/2009-05/msg00425.php
----------------------------->_<-- extra slash
This interferes with Firefox showing links as visited; it treats these as
distinct locations. I tend to grab the head of a thread from the threads index,
then walk down the thread by "Next by thread" links. I used to use link
coloring to identify messages added to a thread since I last read it. When this
extra slash appeared (in the last 1-3 months), this strategy no longer worked:
Firefox regarded links in the thread index as unrelated to the links in the
individual message pages.
Please consider changing the tool that generates these pages to render the links
consistently across the index and message pages.
Thanks,
nm
(I should probably use the news server instead.)
