This section is important for specification authors who rely on this algorithm. Would be nice to see what the result of parsing various strings is. given the string " ?abc=123#123 ", what comes out the other end of the parsing algorithm? given the string "?hello=is this ok?", what comes out the other end of the parsing algorithm? given the string "?query?#fragment#", what comes out the other end of the parsing algorithm? What can cause a URL to be invalid? Some examples of how to invoke the algorithm from another spec would be nice, as well as when it is appropriate to use each of the optional arguments. Like, when should one use a state override? Should one use one when parsing a relative URL? Hope that helps! 106635 1 annevk 2014-05-22 10:38:26 +0000 So the example strings you give would all result in failure. Did you mean to include a base URL? I agree that we need this. Any thoughts on how to include this neatly given the current flow of the text? 114568 2 rubys 2014-11-05 21:30:02 +0000 Does http://intertwingly.net/projects/pegurl/liveview.html address this issue? 122674 3 w3c 2015-08-19 17:09:24 +0000 (In reply to Sam Ruby from comment #2) > Does http://intertwingly.net/projects/pegurl/liveview.html address this > issue?
