FAQ Topic - What is the document object model?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the collection of objects provided by each browser.
Basically, any object in the window hierarchy is part of the
DOM. This means that ` document.writeln() `,
for example, is not an
ECMAScript method but is, in fact, a method provided by the DOM.
The DOM has been standardised by the World Wide Web Consortium
(W3C); however, like all W3C standards, browser support is not
yet complete. Most cross-browser coding problems come from
slightly different implementations of the DOM in the different browsers. http://jibbering.com/faq/index.html#onlineResources http://www.w3.org/DOM/faq.html http://www.w3.org/DOM/

FAQ <http://jibbering.com/faq/index.htmlis full of links of the form
href='index.html#jScript'
That means that a saved copy of the FAQ has links which refer to
index.html in the directory in which it has been saved.
If those "index.html" were removed throughout, those links would refer
to the appropriate place in the saved FAQ.
The link href="http://www.jibbering.com/faq/index.html" should of
course remain.

href='index.html#jScript'
And the "index.html" can be safely removed. And it will work in IE6.
That means that a saved copy of the FAQ has links which refer to
index.html in the directory in which it has been saved.

Yep.
The link href="http://www.jibbering.com/faq/index.html" should of
course remain.
Yep.
Will apply changes.

There is no good reason why. In fact, the "index.html" should be removed
according to W3C recommendations. The default document that is index.html
does not need to be and should not be explicitly referred to (e.g. in case
the technology behind it changes).
Where necessary, server-side redirection should be set up to keep existing
references to the FAQ working while promoting a new URI concept that
provides ways of referencing the FAQ and FAQ sections that are easier to
remember. Consider, for example, <http://jibbering.com/faq/notes/instead
of <http://jibbering.com/faq/faq_notes.html>.

The URI is not very memorable.
If any sort of URL rewriting were to be used, the documents' links
(anchors, css, et c) would all need full root <a href="cookies.html"so
to avoid 404.

Right, the madness of it is even worse:
<http://jibbering.com/faq/faq_notes/faq_notes.html>
You probably meant to link to: http://www.jibbering.com/faq/faq_notes/faq_notes.html
Right, the madness goes even further.

One of my points exactly.
If any sort of URL rewriting were to be used, the documents' links
(anchors, css, et c) would all need full root <a href="cookies.html"so
to avoid 404.
I am talking about redirection, not rewrite; redirection would by itself not
need any changes in the source code at all (although once established, it
would be wise to use the new URIs instead).

Maybe you should have found a better wording then, Doc. For the statement
as it is, is a bad recommendation.

Yeah, I don't see why index.html should be there either.

It might be better to have /faq/notes/ and have the current directory
redirect to that. I don't have access over the faq_notes directory.
