FWIW, FF doesn't autocorrect URLs for me. I don't have swat installed, maybe that has something to do with it. I also use my hosts files (for now, I may set up a local DNS server someday soon) to keep the computers on the inside of my LAN talking to each other by domain name, both FQDN and local name only, instead of by numeric IP address. So I don't particularly need the workaround which so often is not a good workaround. So, rather than encouraging proper understanding and use of domain names (which is an issue at the heart of the apparent need for url auto-correction functions), what is your suggestion?
