Re: [LUG] Mozilla and backslashes in IMG tags

[Alex Charrett <alex@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Quoting Andrew Rogers:

Using MSIE, you can use a whole url with backslashes as opposed to forward 
slashes (http:\\www.dclug.org.uk\linux_adm\archive.html) and the browser will 
translate the backslashes to forward slashes.

Becuse IE does this translation, people can generate pages that work in IE but 
in any other browser will result in broken images/links/etc.
