Hi Eric,
Sorry, I failed to specify that it is the parenthesis which misleads.

I think saying "the URL path that led" rather than "the URL path that leads"
would avoid confusion.

I understand, but I think this could simply be called a directory path, unless
there is a better term. I do not think of that as a prefix. In fact, I can go
to the URL "http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/mod/";. Suppose there is a
.htaccess in that directory, that would mean
"http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/mod/"; would be the "prefix" of the URI
"http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/mod/";, even though they are identical. I
would not call a part of a word which is both mandatory and the only part as a
"prefix".
