URL Resolution

In QuickTime 5, SMIL and HTML documents can now use BASE URLs that point to directories. For example:

file:///mydrive/dir1/dir2/lookhere/

SMIL and HTML documents can also use BASE URLs that point to dummy entries, as long as their parent directories are valid. For example:

file:///mydrive/dir1/dir2/lookhere/bogus.html

This was true in QuickTime 4.1 for HTTP and ftp URLs and is now also true for file URLs.
