[vwnc] URL bug in VW

Try this code:

    ('http://www.cincom.com' asURI construct: 'userblogs') asString

You get:
     'http://www.cincom.com//userblogs'

The two / characters before userblogs are wrong.  There should only be
one / character.

I fixed this in my image by going to the method URLwithPath >>
resolvePath:do: and changing the second last line from:
        list := pString tokensBasedOn: $/.

to:
        list := (pString tokensBasedOn: $/) reject: [:each | each isEmpty].


I also find it rather disconcerting that
    ('http://www.cincom.com' asURI construct:
'userblogs/cincom/blogView') asString

produces:   'http://www.cincom.com/userblogs%2Fcincom%2FblogView'

I would have hoped that it would interpret the embedded / characters as
path delimiters.  Now I have to do a tokensBasedOn: and construct the
pieces myself.

Hi Dave,

You're using the wrong API for what you want to do. Try this instead:
