[OT] URL terminators


  • Subject: [OT] URL terminators
  • From: Paul Berkowitz <email@hidden>

Is there somewhere I can go to read about what characters are valid for http
URLs. and in particular which characters would indicate that an http URL has
terminated, in HTML source code? E.g., " ", "<BR>", "&gt;" are ones I know
about about, optionally preceded by (return). I'd guess that (tab) would be
another, but maybe not. I think there's another way of indicating (space),
when there at=re several spaces, but I forget what it is.

I'm having a problem in a script, using a known URL as an AppleScript text
item delimiter. It gives a "false positive" when the URL in question is the
first part of a longer URL, so I want to be able to specify that the
character(s) following it must be one of the complete set of possibilities
indicating that the URL is not continuing but has terminated.

If anyone knows this set, or can send me to somewhere I can read up on it, I
would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
