    The only time the <base> tag is required is if you are using alias path options. Otherwise it is just good practice. I use it always regardless of the path settings wink

      Ok, I think I nailed it.
      First lesson: Don’t touch the TinyMCE settings switching from. docrelative to rootrelative. You cannot use internal urls like [~999~] anymore in the TinyMCE Link-popup-screen. So, I put that back to docrelative.
      Second: I used the base tag at the top of my template. This solves the problems and everything is working good now.
      <base href="[(site_url)]" />

      I changed my save_content.processor.php as David suggested and everything is working ok.
      Maybe the change can be put in 0.9.6.4?

        Bert,
        That’s good that it was only the <base> tag issue.
        I think Jason & the team would want a little more real world testing before including the change laugh
        We may have to wait and see if anyone else uses it and reports back.
