Description fd 2010-07-01 07:41:58 UTC 
Links such as:
 <a href="">this page</a>
or
 <form action="">
  [...]
 </form>

... should be resolved as "same document references" and target the page under test. The mobileOK Checker seems to think it needs to strip the part after the last "/" in the path.

For instance, an empty link in:
 http://example.org/foo/test.html
would be resolved as:
 http://example.org/foo/

In turn, this may trigger a few failures if the resolved page doesn't exist or does not define a character encoding and/or content-type.

URI resolution in the Resource class now behaves as expected by RFC 2396 and resolves empty references as "the base URI".
