A link to index.html for example, will only work if the file is found in the current folder. Absolute: Absolute links usually look something like http://www.example.com/page.html.

What is the difference between the absolute and relative measurement in DS3 light grids?

DataSensor Sensors FAQs Infra Photoelectric Area Color Laser...
The absolute measurement provides a voltage signal proportional to the last optic interrupted and can be useful, for example, with objects presenting holes or openings. The relative measurement provides a signal proportional to the number of optics interrupted, and so the object width. See similar questions...

In the first mode the object can be detected in any position inside the measurement field. In the second mode, in one pre-established position. These modes can thus solve many different applications, ranging from presence and orientation control, object identification as well as guide control. See similar questions...

What are the pros and cons of using absolute versus relative coordinates?

OpenGL FAQ / 9 Transformations
Some OpenGL applications may need to render the same object in multiple locations in a single scene. OpenGL lets you do this two ways: Use “absolute coordinates". Maintain multiple copies of each object, each with its own unique set of vertices. You don't need to change the ModelView matrix to render the object at the desired location. Use “relative coordinates". See similar questions...

Is it faster to use absolute coordinates or to use relative coordinates?

OpenGL FAQ / 22 Performance
By using absolute (or “world”) coordinates, your application doesn't have to change the ModelView matrix as often. By using relative (or “object”) coordinates, you can cut down on data storage of redundant primitives or geometry. A good analogy is an architectural software package that models a hotel. The hotel model has hundreds of thousands of rooms, most of which are identical. See similar questions...

What about relative URI references; ../myFile is ambiguous, isn't it?

On the relationship of URIs to Resources and Documents, a FA...
Again, each valid use of ../myFile is unambiguous; use of ../myFile with a base URI of http://example/dirA/this/stuff may refer to a different resource than use of ../myFile with a base URI of http://example/dirB/that/stuff; in the first case, its absolute form is http://example/dirA/myFile, but in the second case, its absolute form is http://example/dirB/myFile. Clearly these need not identify the same resource. See similar questions...
