                 Key: TAPESTRY-2413
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2413
             Project: Tapestry
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: tapestry-core
    Affects Versions: 5.0.11
            Reporter: Josh Canfield


Yahoo's Slurp spider and the Twiceler spider (Twiceler-0.9 
http://www.cuill.com/twiceler/robot.html) both have trouble navigating links 
with the optimized urls.

It appears that they consider the last context portion of the context to be a 
folder, and not a file.
For example, after visiting 
http://www.thedailytube.com/tag/2397/solsbury-hill
they follow the link
../304/peter-gabriel
and request
/tag/2397/304/peter-gabriel

I haven't looked up the spec but I assume they are broken spiders. Regardless 
of the correctness of there behavior, I'd like my content to show up in yahoo 
search. The workaround is to transition from _request.toURI() to 
_request.toAbsoluteURI().
