Webware for Python

Here's a juicy problem.

If your browser has this URL:

http://localhost/WebKit.cgi/

Then links on the resulting page get prepended with 
http://localhost/WebKit.cgi/. You can see this by passing your mouse cursor 
over them.


But if you have:

http://localhost/WebKit.cgi

(no trailing slash), then links on the resulting page get prepended with 
just http://localhost/. That results in URLs like http://localhost/Colors 
which cuts the adapter out of the loop and results in an error.

I don't know of any solution to this. My suggestion is that adapters that 
have no trailing slash show some kind of 404 Not Found page to the user. 
Web admins can do a URL remapping to fix this if they desire.

Comments? Opinions?
