plugin not always working
Hi all,
I am trying to create my first plugin.
The plugin gets images from the db from a specific category. Then i show them on the page.
when i enter the url http://www.example.com/category1 the plugin works great, but when i enter http://www.example.com/category1/ it goes wrong. The images aren’‘t shown. When i put the mouse on the thumbnail i see read this: http://www.example.com/category1/images/18.jpg. When the last ‘/’ isn’t in the URL everything works fine.
Is there anyone how can tell me how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Maarten.

Re: plugin not always working
it goes wrong = the plugin generates an incorrect URL for the image or it doesn’t generate an URL at all.
Please provide more details.

Re: plugin not always working
You need to be using an absolute URL. The PHP constant hu contains the full url to the site with an ending slash.

Hello guys,
thx for the replies.
What i do to create the url is this:
$thumb = $img_dir.'/' . $id . 't' . $ext;
the variable $thumb is placed in the href tag.
I do the same for the full image.
Hope anybody can help.
Kind regards,
Maarten.

Re: plugin not always working
Hello all,
thanks for the answers. Now it works.
What i would like to know is, is hu a constant variable of textpattern or PHP. If it’s PHP can you tell me were i can find some documentation about constants in PHP?
Thx in advance.
Maarten.
Kind regards,

It’s a TXP-defined constant (see L85 of textpattern/publish.php).
Constants and how to define them.
