I have a question regarding URLs:
I've read the RFC 3986 and still have a question about one URL:
If a URI contains an authority component, then the path component
must either be empty or begin with a slash ("/") character. If a URI does not contain an authority component, then the path cannot begin
with two slash characters ("//"). In addition, a URI reference
(Section 4.1) may be a relative-path reference, in which case the
first path segment cannot contain a colon (":") character. The ABNF
requires five separate rules to disambiguate these cases, only one of which will match the path substring within a given URI reference. We use the generic term "path component" to describe the URI substring
matched by the parser to one of these rules.
I know, that //server.com:80/path/info
is valid (it is a schema relative URL)
I also know that http://server.com:80/path//info
is valid.
But I am not sure whether the following one is valid:
http://server.com:80//path/info
The problem behind my question is, that a cookie is not sent to http://server.com:80//path/info
, when created by the URI http://server.com:80/path/info
with restriction to /path
