The canonical form of HG addresses is<br>
URL region_name<br>
For example<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://hg.osgrid.org">http://hg.osgrid.org</a> Lbsa Plaza<br>
or<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://sciencegrid.org/grid/hypergrid.php">http://sciencegrid.org/grid/hypergrid.php</a> Yellowstone<br>
<br>
If you type this on the map you will find it. (as long as those
grids/regions exist)<br>
<br>
Other forms are supported for various reasons, from legacy to having
to deal with viewer issues. But the canonical form, i.e. the one to
which all others are translated, is<br>
URL region_name<br>

<div>Thanks Simon, James,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>indeed, what would be very useful is the ability to search
for online hypergrid regions, for example typing in the world
map search field :</div>
<div><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.example.com/tp/osgrid-plazza">www.example.com/osgrid-plazza</a>
would redirect to osgrid plazza simulator...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So, people would only remember and refer to this fixed, easy
to use, and intelligible <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://example.com">example.com</a> URL, and the
underlying HTTP redirection be updated transparently for all
users !</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If I could propose a patch for such easy feature, are there
chances it can be added to OpenSim ?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks a lot for your time and consideration,</div>
<div>PMint.</div>
