Some MSWindows html editors (e.g. Open Office) are notorious for 
automatically substituting the fully qualified link path for a relative 
link path, that has been typed in so that the page should have been 
reasonably portable. If one doesn't know that this can occur and correct 
all the affected links before uploading this sort of link error can result.

I don't know if this somewhat undesirable behaviour is restricted to 
MSWindows applications, perhaps someone can enlighten me on this.
