Resolve relative urls using HTML <base>

[OmgImAlexis]

Is there a reason this only uses the current URL for resolving relative URLs instead of using the <base> element?

I don't think there is a reason. Support for the <base> element should be easy to add.

Can we get away with it without adding platform specific code for it?

Since it should be available via document.baseURI could you not just add it onto the if statement? if (document && document.baseURI){}

It should be sufficient to add document && document.baseURI here.
