I am wondering:
usually a URL has the form
http://www.company.com/dir/subdir...
but lately, I have often come across
http://www.company.com//dir/subdir
What does this '//' mean?
The same thing as '/'. I would guess it is an error in whoever coded
the particular URL. I guess since most servers default to unix
behaviour the '/' will work the same as '//'.
