page_url

colak · 2007-09-04 06:21:45

I was going to post this in the Existing issues forum but there’s no link to create a new post.

In the official 4.0.5 release, when a site resides in a subdirectory, there’s no way to output the complete page address using txp tags.

<txp:site_url /><txp:page_url />

returns http://domain.tld/directory/directory/url/scheme/

The problem lies with the page_url which returns the directory name.

So is the above behaviour a bug or feature?

As you use it, it’s a feature. Without attributes, page_url returns the request_uri, which is always relative to the domain root, not the textpattern root. Is this a request for a type="uri" attribute that would output the complete URI?

Yep, feature/intentional. Feature request?

I’m not really using it but I was trying to help wspence in the forum. After posting there, I thought I should check it out in my install and discovered the behaviour there.

I could see of some other uses where this could be helpful apart from the post to wspence

bookmarklets could be coded with generic txp tags as opposed to having to hand code the domain
There are times that someone might want the url to appear on the page (when someone is printing a page for example)

If it is not hard to add functionality in the core it would probably be a welcome addition by many users.
