Functions

decode_query(data)
Decodes a query as defined by the "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" content type.

This method encodes a query as defined by the "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" content type (see http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.1 for details)

get_reference(reference)
Returns a URI reference of the good type from the given string.

get_absolute_reference(reference, base=None)
Returns the absolute URI for the given reference.

get_absolute_reference2(reference, base=None)
Like "get_absolute_reference", but uses the "resolve2" algorithm (ignores trailing slashes).

register_scheme(name, handler)

get_scheme(name)

Function Details

decode_query(data)
