Topic: base href="http://www.hiroki.com/"

Hi, guys. How are you?
Could I ask you something?
What does base tag do?
I mean I saw something like:

< base href="http://www.hiroki.com">

What is that for???
Would you know anything about it?

No offense meant here, but with a lot of these questions, all you have to is look in the specs. I know the w3 site can be daunting, but a simple browse through the spec will usually give you the keyword you're looking for and link to the specific details....

Hi, DL.
How are you today?
Many thanks for that.
Yes, I have found it.
Now I am trying to understand it.
Thanks.
Have a goo day.
Cya.

In HTML, links and references to external images, applets, form-processing programs, style sheets, etc. are always specified by a URI. Relative URIs are resolved according to a base URI, which may come from a variety of sources. The BASE element allows authors to specify a document's base URI explicitly.

When present, the BASE element must appear in the HEAD section of an HTML document, before any element that refers to an external source. The path information specified by the BASE element only affects URIs in the document where the element appears.
