Hello everyone,
The title of this thread might be misleading, but I'm pretty sure this question belongs to this part of the forum, if not, feel free to say it :)
I created a php include to have it across all of my websites (some sort of community thing to help those sites with lower traffic) and I want it hosted on my main site and include it on all others using the absolute url/path to the included file as well as the css to it, that works fine so far...
My problem is that when I link the sites the absolute URLs get treated as relative so what should go to "https://www.site1.net" goes to "www.mainsite.com/www.site1.net"
This is the included file I'm calling from all pages:
<div id="community">
<span id="community-title">Community:</span>
| <a href="https://www.site1.net/" class="community-link">Site 1</a>
| <a href="https://www.site2.com" class="community-link">Site 2</a>
| <a href="https://www.site3.com" class="community-link">Site 3</a>
</div> |
|
I have linked to absolute URLs before, just not inside a php include, would this be the problem?
Thanks in advanced for any help provided :)

The first thing that comes to mind is you've errantly left out https://
<a href="www.example.com">
That would do it too.
The only other thing I can think of ATM is that you have a base href interfering with the mix(?, though it shouldn't with fully qualified links.)
<base href=" https://www.mainsite.com">

I'm sorry to say that I was calling the wrong file from my test page, can't say I didn't learn from this though, I didn't know about the base tag before this conversation :)
Thanks rocknbil, it all working fine now.
