how to use apache to log relative links as absolute

[krups]

i'm using awstat to parse through apache logs. i've run into a case where i need an absolute path for a link rather then a relative path.

essentially, i've got a link that looks like

/externallink?url=http://webmasterworld.is.coolio

and i want apache to record the user selecting the above links as

[mydomain.com...]

ideas?

See Apache mod_log_config. You can insert %{HTTP_HOST} ahead of the local URL-path to get the canonical URL.

I'm not sure if your stats package will recognize the new format, though.
