Link is relative to document, not root

I’ve got a site using FURL’s and I have Use Friendly Alias Path turned on. I therefore reference everything with an initial "/" etc. I’m using the Link List in TinyMCE and I noticed that it uses a URL that’s relative to the document, instead of relative to the root. For example, I have multiple "directories" so on this page:

[tt]mydomain.com/widgets/acme.html[/tt]

the inserted link is:

[tt]widgets/acme/policy.html[/tt]

resulting in the following request:

[tt]mydomain.com/widgets/widgets/acme/policy.html[/tt]

Can TinyMCE put a "/" at the beginning of the link? A <base> tag would fix it, but I can’t use that b/c it will screw up some other things I’m doing.

When using the Friendly Alias Path option you need to use the <base> tag for the paths to work. Add:

to the head section of the template.

Edit: I see you cant use it, sorry.

I don’t think you’ll be able to use paths without a base href indeed.

:’(
i’ll try something else then. btw, this is related to a situation I have where I’ve got a "multi domain" client, with one of the domains pointing to one of the "folders":

[tt]mydomain.com
superwidgets.com -> mydomain.com/widgets[/tt]

I’ve modified the htaccess file to allow for this, and I created a plugin with a few regex replacements to modify any/all links in the doc. Pretty cool.

That is very cool. If you have some time I would like to know more about how you accomplished this

I posted this in the Tips & Tricks forum, where it probably fits best:
