Noticed this with some 2.8.4 vintage Lynx, downloaded 2.8.5dev.9 and got
the same thing:
$ lynx http://www.habeus.com/
Using http://www.habeas.com
[Current link is http://www.habeas.comabout/overview.htm]
I misspelled the name of their site -- I typed "habeus" where it should
have been "habeas". They redirected to the correct site, but without a
trailing slash. Lynx then based all of the relative URLs on that page
on the prefix "http://www.habeas.com", sans trailing slash.
I'm sure the redirect was wrong, and should be fixed. I'm not so sure
whether Lynx was doing something wrong here, or maybe just "not
sufficiently right". A cross-check with Netscape (4.7, all I had handy)
shows that it takes the redirect in the right spirit.
The redirect looks like:
HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2002 22:48:09 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) mod_perl/1.24
Location: http://www.habeas.com
Connection: close
Content-Type: httpd/unix-directory
and would be perfect if there was a trailing "/" on the Location:
header.
