If not, your team may want to ask other teams to build one or you can't possibly get around the &amp;quot;Unicode Homograph Attacks&amp;quot; using Chinese characters.&lt;br&gt;I live in Hong Kong where people use both CHT and CHS in their life, and people likely treat an address in CHS as those in CHT, therefore creating the possbility for opening a fake website with one or two characters changed to another character set.&lt;br&gt;Even if this is too complicated to be done(I fully understand how difficult a task it could be to achieve a good effect), it'd be great if the browser can issue a warning popup to alert the user about this possible abuse.</description></item><item><title>re: URLs in Internet Explorer 7</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/08/15/452006.aspx#452055</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Aug 2005 11:12:24 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:452055</guid><dc:creator>puco</dc:creator><description>Good to know that the URI parsing/handling will be so extensible, so next step could be data URIs.</description></item><item><title>re: URLs in Internet Explorer 7</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/08/15/452006.aspx#452067</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Aug 2005 11:56:56 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:452067</guid><dc:creator>xuzak</dc:creator><description>I hope for the new optimized URI handling architecture.</description></item><item><title>re: URLs in Internet Explorer 7</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/08/15/452006.aspx#452074</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Aug 2005 12:22:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:452074</guid><dc:creator>Barthax</dc:creator><description>I find it quite shocking that only with version seven of IE has someone at MS finally figured this out!

I was wondering if the new Internet Explorer will have tooltips over links like Opera.&lt;br&gt;This is a truly remarkable thing, you point your mouse over a link and in a tooltip you have the real address to where yjat link points to. With this you can hardly make the mistake of clicking a link that will take you anywhere else that the text suggests.</description></item><item><title>re: URLs in Internet Explorer 7</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/08/15/452006.aspx#452117</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Aug 2005 15:46:40 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:452117</guid><dc:creator>Sanbog</dc:creator><description>All IE7 is a knock-off version of FireFox, Netscape (owner of Mozilla, which created FireFox) has always been a better internet Browser</description></item><item><title>re: URLs in Internet Explorer 7</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/08/15/452006.aspx#452120</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Aug 2005 15:56:04 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:452120</guid><dc:creator>Jean Pascal</dc:creator><description>Dear Eric,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;thanks for your reaction on mine and other posts regarding the IDN-technology.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It is so good to hear the first official MS-statement that confirms IDN will be supported by IE 7.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'm very curious which solutions you've chosen.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks again,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jean Pascal</description></item><item><title>re: URLs in Internet Explorer 7</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/08/15/452006.aspx#452130</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Aug 2005 16:34:42 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:452130</guid><dc:creator>Mike J</dc:creator><description>You just mentioned&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;crack-and-combine process hundreds of times per page is quite inefficient&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;This is true.

Previous comments request support for data: URL. I am actually wondering whether javascript: URL would receive a different treatment, since this is inherently more dangerous than just showing some text or image. I am guessing maybe a URL scheme based policy can help, and probably the proper URL permissions/origins can be propagated along all code path.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;From a secure software architecture viewpoint, the CURL is a great improvement.

On the list I've occasionally mentioned and hoped to get some input and feedback from Microsoft regarding issues related to this -- such as how UNC paths are mapped to and from 'file:' URIs (and your conventions &amp;amp; caveats re: 'file:' URIs in general); and what kind of URI normalization is performed by the Address Bar widget in Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer (and where the line is between what is done there and what is done in the resolver; the widget is lenient about what it accepts, and sometimes rewrites what you enter in it; what principles guide this normalization?).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A couple of MS folks do seem to be on the list (Alun Jones, Michel Suignard) but they remained focused on other issues. If possible, could anyone with an inside track at MS help us produce a 'file:' spec that reflects best current practice, if not also strives to provide better guiding principles for future implementations?

There is an old rule of programming when implementing specifications, be conservative in what you send, and liberal in what you accept. I believe IE is following that rule. I'd much rather bad code work in IE than not work because of standards conformance. IE is correct probably 99% of the time when it assumes the user meant to use a /, so why add needless difficulty? Instead, I'd be asking the Firefox people to add this feature!</description></item><item><title>re: URLs in Internet Explorer 7</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/08/15/452006.aspx#454068</link><pubDate>Sat, 20 Aug 2005 23:01:53 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:454068</guid><dc:creator>Daniel E.
