title: file:/// for url path for local html files?
body: <p>I'm just started web developing not long ago, and I'm wondering why running HTML on my computer comes up with <code>file:///</code> and then the file path and name in the browser url bar. For example, what I'm testing right now is:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>file:///D:/WebDesign/HTML/test/default.html</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Why isn't it <code>file://</code>, or just the pathname?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a certain reason for this?</p>
  
  <p>thanks for any answers.</p>
