---- The <base> element and how to use it effectively

<base href="http://www.example.com/">

to establish the base url of the site.

Our site uses internal a href links like this:

<a href="/page1.htm">

Rather than the full url.

We used to use a base ref on each page that was:

<base href="http://www.example.com/">

But recently decided to specify the exact url of each page in the base ref:

<base href="http://www.example.com/page2.htm">

So every page has a different base ref url.

Is this okay or will it cause confusion or conflict to some bots?

I did have a look at WebmasterWorld but couldn't get a definite answer.

If it's wrong we'll change it back.
