Hi Ralph,
I am running Cocoon on my Linux box and am trying to access the portal tools plugins from my Windows box. This does not work because the links are hardcoded to localhost. I tried changing it to a relative path but it failed miserably. This needs to be changed to behave like the rest of the portal.
Yes, thats a known problem. We used the global var in the sitemap to set the base-tag in the head of the portal-page.xsl inside the tools, so that we could access the images used in the skins could be accessed without problems (I don't like links like ../../../../foo.gif :-))
Unfortunatly not only the images but also all the links use the base-tag :(
We have to change all the link/image references in the portal anyway. I think it's possible to get rid off this base tag by addressing all resources relative from the servlet context. But changing this will take some time; I hope to get something done in the next days.Nomally you just have to set it one time to the ip/domain of your box if you don't move the portal from one position to another every day.
If you have a better/more elgeant/easier souloution please let me know.
Carsten
