XPath requests on hyperlinks fail if the href attribute doesn't contain "http://" (only with IE) #32

What steps will reproduce the problem?
See the file attached and open it with Firefox and IE. Click on "TestMe!".

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
You should see "Result: 1" twice. That means that the XPath requests are
correctly executed. With IE the first request works but not the other one,
consequently you should see "Result: 1" and then "Result: 0"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v0.8.1

This issue is related to the way IE works. As explained in this forum
(http://clearspace.openqa.org/message/62219), IE resolves the href attribute to 
give
an absolute URL with the domain name (not just the string initially given).
The XPath requests should then use 'contains' instead of '='.
