permlink and relative/absolute links

The permlink tag in textpattern generates html such as “http://www.mystite.com/news/46/hed” where my links are located.
Is there a way to make textpattern make relative links for my urls instead? like “news/46/hed”?

It seems odd to put the full “http://blahblah” url in all the links.

They wouldn’t always work.

If you’re on http://www.mystite.com/news/46/hed, and the browser sees a link to “news/45/something”, it will look for http://www.mystite.com/news/46/news/45/something.

Re: permlink and relative/absolute links

Zem, on the tstate web site, on the opening page, the is a link, for example, that is relative:

a href=”/articles/3981/zem_article_info-documentation” …

How did you do that?
