[Zope] Wrong <base href=""> for .HTM file

Wed, 25 Apr 2001 19:06:10 -0700

Look at this pywatch output below. When I request a file that ends in .HTM
the <base> tag ends with a / which confuses the browser. The browser makes
all relative references in the .HTM file (<img> tags for example) relative
to http://localhost/Engineering/LSFReports/cibhrm6.HTM/ not to
http://localhost/Engineering/LSFReports/ as you would expect.

When I try this with a file that is named with a lowercase .htm extension,
no <base> is generated, and the browser fetches all relative <img> tags just
fine.

I tried to figure out what HTTPResponse.py is doing with <base> but didn't
get far. Does anyone else understand what's happening?
