Ergo, HTTP URLs are explicitly (and presumably deliberately) defined to _NOT_ support "userinfo" data so any implementation that does is non-compliant.This is your interpretation of section 3.2.2 of RFC 2616. However section 3.2.1 of the same document states that "For definitive information on URL syntax and semantics," you should "see 'Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI): Generic Syntax and Semantics,' RFC 2396." Since there are neither any MUST NOTs in RFC 2616 nor any apparent technical reasons why userinfo should be banned from HTTP-URLs, it is clear that not everyone will follow your reasoning. That's why implementors have choosen to make use of the userinfo-part in services, protocols and user agents. Regards, mescsa __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
