RE: [Handle-info] Media Fragments

["Schwichtenberg, Frank" <Frank.Schwichtenberg@fiz-karlsruhe.de>]

Hello Robert,
I just looked for documentation of the new template handles. If there is already something I would be glad if you can point out.

But maybe you can just give a short answer to my primary question: Is the construction of an URL a template handle resolves to free of constraints? E.g. no # needed; like "12345/1<60,100>" resolves to http://www.example.org/video/60/100 ?

Best Regards, Frank
