A question mark is usually included in a string to indicate personally identifiable information such as a user ID and would typically be used in a link that performs a function like a deletion, Mayer said." "The product is in beta," Mayer said. "It could be that our assumption around the question mark and the way sites comply with the standard is incorrect. If that is the case, then we'll have to redesign the prefetch algorithm." Fried acknowledged that the applications do not conform to all standards. For example, functions such as a deletion technically should be handled with buttons rather than links, he said. Google needs to recognize, however, that many sites use methods that vary from standards, he said. "To me, the real test here is not so much that Google may have made mistake but how they respond to it," Fried said. "Are they going to call it a mistake or blame everyone else to [make them] build products the way they should be built in a perfect world?" -- -- Terry Wilson | terry@terryfic.com | http://terryfic.com creator of: http://WhosComing.com - a simplified, affordable online reservation system http://WhosBringingWhat.com - online potluck signup sheet -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
