For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Ah. That might be my confusion. When I let it go with multiple
concatenated URLs, I was getting an error - might have been because it
was attempting to reopen a dead dynamic page while running through the
dozen other tabs/pages that were probably open at the time that I
spotted something and said "hm. that'd make a nice home page." To me
it just looked like the concatenation wasn't being accepted.
But maybe you're right, and it's legit.
OK, I take back any hard things I said about Mozilla developers this
week. :-)
