Excess of trailing /s
(from email)
I wrote my own rule for my personal website, which supports https at a different URL. The https-everywhere add-on seems to append a terminal '/' to the rewritten URL even though I didn't specify one, and this caused Firefox to return a "page not found" error when looking for
https://gator461.hostgator.com/~ka9q/index.html/
I was able to work around this bug for my own situation by simply dropping the /index.html from the rewritten URL, but obviously it could be more of a problem for websites where the URL is a single page, not a directory.
My ruleset is now as follows:
Note the lack of a terminal '/' on the 'to' rule. Yet the rewritten URL that appears in Firefox after loading the page is
https://gator461.hostgator.com/~ka9q/
i.e., with a terminal '/'.
Thanks,
