Hello, HZ>I was wondering if that network trip can be avoided.
The answer is no. You might be able to use JavaScript to do it on certain browsers, but I'm reasonably sure you can't do it on recent IE and Netscape browsers. Why do you want to do this? You could use <base href/> or similar if your goal is just to make links are relative to a certain root.
