It's really a surprise for me that Igor Sysoev answered my first question in our forum! \(^o^)/~
But I'm not familiar with SSI or shtml protocal... So... let me think about it:
When I enter the URL "http://www.g.cn" into IE, the URL will be redirected to "http://www.google.cn" such as follows:
Started Time Sent Received Method Result Type URL
+ 0.000 0.134 406 532 GET 301 Redirect to http://www.google.cn/webhp?source=g_cn http://www.g.cn/
Dose the GET of URL"http://www.google.cn/webhp?source=g_cn" is a sub-request of the GET of URL"http://www.g.cn/"?
