16 * A component specifies the range of the part of the URL. The begin specifies
17 * the index into the string of the first character of that component. The len
18 * specifies the length of that component.
20 * This range does not include any special delimiter for that component, so
21 * the scheme doesn't include the trailing colon, the username and password
22 * don't include the @ and :, the port doesn't include the colon, the query
23 * doesn't include the ?, and the ref doesn't include the #.
25 * The exception is that the path *does* include the first /, since that's an
26 * integral part of the path.
28 * If the component is not present at all, begin will be 0 and len will be -1.
29 * If the component is present but empty, the length will be 0 instead. Example:
30 * http://foo/search -> query = (0, -1)
31 * http://foo/search? -> query = (18, 0)

52 * URL encoding: URLs are supplied to this interface as NULL-terminated 8-bit

54 * UTF-8. Canonicalized URL strings returned by these functions will be ASCII
55 * except for the reference fragment (stuff after the '#') which will be
56 * encoded as UTF-8.

60 * Canonicalizes the given URL string according to the rules of the host
61 * browser. If the URL is invalid or the var is not a string, this will
62 * return a Null var and the components structure will be unchanged.
64 * The components pointer, if non-NULL and the canonicalized URL is valid,
65 * will identify the components of the resulting URL. Components may be NULL
66 * to specify that no component information is necessary.

72 * is returned as a string. If the resolution is invalid or either of the
73 * inputs are not strings, a Null var will be returned. The resulting URL
74 * will also be canonicalized according to the rules of the browser.
76 * Note that the "relative" URL may in fact be absolute, in which case it
77 * will be returned. This function is identical to resolving the full URL
78 * for an <a href="..."> on a web page. Attempting to resolve a relative URL
79 * on a base URL that doesn't support this (e.g. "data") will fail and will
80 * return a Null var, unless the relative URL is itself absolute.
82 * The components pointer, if non-NULL and the canonicalized URL is valid,
83 * will identify the components of the resulting URL. Components may be NULL
84 * to specify that no component information is necessary.

93 * URL of the document containing the given plugin instance.
95 * Danger: This will be identical to resolving a relative URL on the page,
96 * and might be overridden by the page to something different than its actual
97 * URL via the <base> tag. Therefore, resolving a relative URL of "" won't
98 * necessarily give you the URL of the page!

139 * Returns the Source URL for the plugin. This returns the URL that would be
140 * streamed to the plugin if it were a NPAPI plugin. This is usually the src
141 * attribute on the <embed> element, but the rules are obscure and different
142 * based on whether the plugin is loaded from an <embed> element or an
143 * <object> element.
144 * The components pointer, if non-NULL and the canonicalized URL is valid,
145 * will identify the components of the resulting URL. Components may be NULL

153 * is the value of the 'Referer' header of the request. An undefined value
154 * means the 'Referer' header was absent.
155 * The components pointer, if non-NULL and the canonicalized URL is valid,

157 * to specify that no component information is necessary.
