    4239== URL Argument Lists ==
    43 
    4440General URL format:
    45 
    4641{{{
    4742http://host/application/module/resource/<arguments>?<vars>
    … …  
    4944
    5045The argument list is interpreted as follows:
    51 
    52   * '''empty argument list''' = all records of the resource
    53   * '''<id>''' = a particular record of the resource
    54   * '''<id>/<component>''' = all records of a component of a particular record of the resource
    55   * '''<component>/<id>''' = a particular record of a component of the resource
     46* '''empty argument list''' = all records of the resource
     47* '''<id>''' = a particular record of the resource
     48* '''<id>/<component>''' = all records of a component of a particular record of the resource
     49* '''<component>/<id>''' = a particular record of a component of the resource
    5650
    5751If a '''<method>''' argument is added at the end of the argument list, the addressed resource(s) will be accessed with that method.
