<h2 id="fragment-abuse">Working with the Fragment (Hash)</h2>
<p>
There are virtually no limits to what you might do with fragments (hash).
Every system has their own bag of tricks.
As a result URI.js cannot offer any of the following tools right out of the box.
The most common <em>abuse of fragments</em> are storing URLs or query string like data.
</p>
<h3 id="fragment-abuse-query">Query String Fragments</h3>
<p>The file <a href="https://github.com/medialize/URI.js/blob/gh-pages/src/URI.fragmentQuery.js">src/URI.fragmentQuery.js</a> is a "plugin" that allows you to store data in hashes in the same manner the .query() functions provide.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = new URI("#?hello=world");
uri.addFragment("hello", "mars"); // returns the URI instance for chaining
// uri == "#?hello=world&hello=mars"</pre>

<p>The file <a href="https://github.com/medialize/URI.js/blob/gh-pages/src/URI.fragmentURI.js">src/URI.fragmentURI.js</a> is a "plugin" that allows you to store URLs in hashes.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = URI("http://example.org/#!/foo/bar/baz.html"),

// manipulating the fragment URI
furi.pathname() === '/foo/bar/baz.html';

// has direct effect on the actual URI
uri.toString() === "http://example.org/#!/hello.html"</pre>
<h2 id="normalizing">Normalizing URLs</h2>
<h3 id="normalize">normalize()</h3>
<p>executes normalizeProtocol(), normalizeHostname(), normalizePort(), normalizePath(), normalizeSearch(), normalizeHash()</p>
<h3 id="normalize-protocol">normalizeProtocol()</h3>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = new URI("hTTp://www.example.org/");
// normalize protocol
uri.normalizeProtocol(); // returns the URI instance for chaining
// uri == "http://www.example.org/"</pre>
<h3 id="normalize-host">normalizeHostname()</h3>
<p>For IDN conversion <a href="https://github.com/bestiejs/punycode.js">punycode.js</a> must be available (bundled in URI.js).
For IPv6-best-notation conversion IPv6.js must be available (bundled in URI.js). Also lower-cases hostnames.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = new URI("http://www.exämple.org/");

<p>There is no .normalizeHost(), as <a href="#accessors-host">.host()</a> is a property comprised of <a href="#accessors-hostname">.hostname()</a> and <a href="#accessors-port">.port()</a></p>
<h3 id="normalize-port">normalizePort()</h3>
<p>Removes the port, if it's the default for the given protocol (http: 80, https: 443, ftp: 21).</p>
<p>The list of default ports can be modified at <code>URI.defaultPorts</code></p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = new URI("http://example.org:80/foo.html");
// normalize port
uri.normalizePort(); // returns the URI instance for chaining
// uri == "http://example.org/foo.html"</pre>
<h3 id="normalize-path">normalizePathname(), normalizePath()</h3>
<p>.normalizePath() is an alias of .normalizePathname(), they resolve relative hierarchies</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = new URI("/hello/foo/woo/.././../world.html");
// normalize path
uri.normalizePathname(); // returns the URI instance for chaining
// uri == "/hello/world.html"</pre>

<h2 id="charsets">Charsets / Encodings</h2>
<h3 id="#iso8859">iso8859()</h3>

<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = new URI("/%C3%A4.html");

<h2 id="relative-and-absolute">Relative and Absolute URLs</h2>
<h3 id="relativeto">relativeTo()</h3>
<p>.relativeTo() compares two paths an makes one relative to the other</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = new URI("/relative/path");
// make path relative
var relUri = uri.relativeTo("/relative/sub/foo/sub/file"); // returns a new URI instance
// relUri == "../../../path"</pre>
<p>.relativeTo() and .absoluteTo() reverse each other.</p>
<h3 id="absoluteto">absoluteTo()</h3>
<p>.absoluteTo() makes a relative path absolute based on another path</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var uri = new URI("../../../path");
// make path absolute
var relUri = uri.absoluteTo("/relative/sub/foo/sub/file"); // returns a new URI instance
// relUri == "/relative/path"</pre>
<p>.relativeTo() and .absoluteTo() reverse each other.</p>
<h2 id="comparison">Comparing URLs</h2>
<h3 id="equals">equals()</h3>
<p>.equals() determines if the given URLs are the same - disregarding default ports, capitalization, dot-pathnames, query-parameter order, etc.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var a = "http://example.org/foo/bar.html"

<p>adds data to a map</p>

<p>URI.commonPath() determines the common base directory of two paths.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">URI.commonPath('/foo/bar/baz.html', '/foo/bar/world.html');

<h3 id="static-withinString">URI.withinString()</h3>
<p>URI.withinString() identifies URIs within text, e.g. to translate them to <a>-Tags. (Obviously you'd want to put the urls inside the href-Attribute and escape them properly…)</p>
