> [RFC 1808|http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1808.txt] specified that path elements of URLs may contains so-called params startet by ";", e.g. ";type=a". If the base URL contains a path param while the link target does not, params are transferred to the target:
> {quote}
> Step 5: 
>  a) if the embedded URL's <params> is non-empty, we skip to
>      step 7; otherwise, it inherits the <params> of the base URL (if any)
> {quote}
> This behaviour has been implemented with NUTCH-436. Later (NUTCH-1115) it had been made optional and configurable by property {{parser.fix.embeddedparams}}. NUTCH-797 made the changes of both issues inactive for 1.x (not applied to 2.x) with reference to RFC 3986.
> [RFC 3986|http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986] which obsoletes RFC 1808 does not mention params and examples given in sect. 5.4. "Reference Resolution Examples" contradict RFC 1808. Also [Wikipedia|http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=URI_scheme&oldid=604656593] states:
> {quote}
> Historically, each segment was specified to contain parameters separated from it using a semicolon (";"), though this was rarely used in practice and current specifications allow but no longer specify such semantics.
> {quote}
> Accordingly, any special treatment of "params" in relative links should be removed from Nutch. At a first glance, this would include:
> * 2.x parse-html and parse-tika
> ** remove fixEmbeddedParams(...)
> ** change unit tests to follow examples from RFC 3986
> * 1.x
> ** remove unused fixEmbeddedParams(...) from parse-html
> ** remove property {{parser.fix.embeddedparams}} from nutch-default.xml
