Problem:
perldoc URI gave me the following text and example for $URI::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS:
-----------------------------------
$URI::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS
You can also have the abs() method ignore excess ".." segments in
the relative URI by setting $URI::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS to a TRUE
value. The difference is demonstrated by the following examples:
URI->new("../../../foo")->abs("http://host/a/b")
==> "http://host/../../foo"
local $URI::URL::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS = 1;
URI->new("../../../foo")->abs("http://host/a/b")
==> "http://host/foo"
-----------------------------------
The example shows $URI::URL::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS, where it should, as near as I can tell, be $URI::ABS_REMOTE_LEADING_DOTS.
