+Overview
+========
+
+[![browser support](https://ci.testling.com/lydell/resolve-url.png)](https://ci.testling.com/lydell/resolve-url)
+
+Like Node.js’ [`path.resolve`]/[`url.resolve`] for the browser.
+
+```js
+var resolveUrl = require("resolve-url")
+
+window.location
+// https://example.com/articles/resolving-urls/edit
+
+resolveUrl("remove")
+// https://example.com/articles/resolving-urls/remove
+
+resolveUrl("/static/scripts/app.js")
+// https://example.com/static/scripts/app.js
+
+// Imagine /static/scripts/app.js contains `//# sourceMappingURL=../source-maps/app.js.map`
+resolveUrl("/static/scripts/app.js", "../source-maps/app.js.map")
+// https://example.com/static/source-maps/app.js.map
+
+resolveUrl("/static/scripts/app.js", "../source-maps/app.js.map", "../coffee/app.coffee")
+// https://example.com/static/coffee/app.coffee
+
+resolveUrl("//cdn.example.com/jquery.js")
+// https://cdn.example.com/jquery.js
+
+resolveUrl("http://foo.org/")
+// http://foo.org/
+```

+
+Installation
+============
+
+- `npm install resolve-url`
+- `bower install resolve-url`
+- `component install lydell/resolve-url`
+
+Works with CommonJS, AMD and browser globals, through UMD.
+
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+### `resolveUrl(...urls)` ###
+
+Pass one or more urls. Resolves the last one to an absolute url, using the
+previous ones and `window.location`.
+
+It’s like starting out on `window.location`, and then clicking links with the
+urls as `href` attributes in order, from left to right.
+
+Unlike Node.js’ [`path.resolve`], this function always goes through all of the
+arguments, from left to right. `path.resolve` goes from right to left and only
+in the worst case goes through them all. Should that matter.
+
+Actually, the function is _really_ like clicking a lot of links in series: An
+actual `<a>` gets its `href` attribute set for each url! This means that the
+url resolution of the browser is used, which makes this module really
+light-weight.
+
+Also note that this functions deals with urls, not paths, so in that respect it
+has more in common with Node.js’ [`url.resolve`]. But the arguments are more
+like [`path.resolve`].
+
+[`path.resolve`]: http://nodejs.org/api/path.html#path_path_resolve_from_to
+[`url.resolve`]: http://nodejs.org/api/url.html#url_url_resolve_from_to
+
+
+Tests
+=====
+
+Run `npm test`, which lints the code and then gives you a link to open in a
+browser of choice (using `testling`).
