[Bug 409329] Re: BASE HREF not taken into account in <APPLET> CODEBASE attribute

[Micah Gersten]

Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu.  Unfortunately, that usage is not allowed per the HTML4 spec:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/objects.html#h-13.4

"codebase = uri [CT]
    This attribute specifies the base URI for the applet. If this attribute is not specified, then it defaults the same base URI as for the current document. Values for this attribute may only refer to subdirectories of the directory containing the current document. Note. While the restriction on subdirectories is a departure from common practice and the HTML 3.2 specification, the HTML Working Group has chosen to leave the restriction in this version of the specification for security reasons."

** Changed in: firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
