Yes, OmniWeb has a bit of trouble with URL's with colons and other  
punctuation characters. I'd suggest that for the next version the  
authors take a close look at the URL spec. Something like

http://host:2001/~darrin/my_script.cgi?param#marker

fails too, when marker contains a colon, but is a legal URL (as far  
as I can tell).

I've just joined this mailing list. Does anyone know where I can get  
archives of it? Also, and hints as to what features have been added  
for version 2.0? Thanks.
