Hail Monks!

i have been wondering this for a while and was hoping someone here could clarify my question.

on some websites the url is for example, "http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,809353,00.asp?kc=EWTH102099TX1K0100487", well i was wondering what the "0,3959,809353,00.asp" was... is it a parameter being passed to a script, or does the file have commas in it? wanst sure having files with commas in the name is possible...

but anyway, i like this method, even though i do not fully understand it, and i wanted to try it out, though i need some help with what is actually going on.

thanks monks! ------ another example : "http://gamespot.com/gamespot/filters/0,10850,6013548,00.html"

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
