Site PR and internal linking

Absolute or relative links to the home page?

[patoruzu]

The internal pages of a site link to the Home Page using the relative link href="../default.asp".

Would it make a real difference for the Home Page page rank (as shown in the Google Directory) if an absolute link href="http://www.domain.com/" is used instead of the relative href="../default.asp"? (external pages link to [domain.com)...]

Thanks in advance for your comments

I like absolute links.It helps against site stealers.I don't know if it helps with google but it certainly does no harm IMO.

Having some links to default.asp and some to / is just asking for trouble, and is easily avoidable.
