'''data: URL'''s, [[IETF]] standard (RFC 2397), are a kind of [[Uniform Resource Locator|URL]] (even though they do not ''locate'' a resource) that allows inclusion of small data items inline, as if they had been included externally. They tend to be far simpler than alternative inclusion methods, such as [[MIME]] with cid: or mid:.
 
It is currently supported by [[Mozilla Application Suite|Mozilla]] (and its derivatives like [[Mozilla Firefox|Firefox]]), [[Opera (web browser)|Opera]], [[Safari (web browser)|Safari]] and [[Konqueror]]. [[Microsoft]]'s [[Internet Explorer]], as of version 6, does not support data: URLs.
