Hi All, My blog is served through 2 URLs:
http://eddgrant.com/blog - for lazy typists :-) and http://www.eddgrant.com/blog Note: I have not set any value in the 'server settings | Absolute URL' property. I recently noticed that whichever URL I hit first is then used by Roller when generating URIs in templates through the use of $url.resource(resource). This seems to happen until Roller is restarted at which point the first subsequently served URI is used again. For example: If I start my server up and hit http://eddgrant.com/blog first then this is used in subsequent calls to $url.resource(resource), conversely if I hit http://www.eddgrant.com/blog first then this is the path that is used. I wouldn't usually be too concerned about this however I recently updated my roller theme to use @font-face fonts, in doing so I have made a discovery which I initially thought was a Firefox Bug: The issue being a same origin restriction for served font files where the font file MUST be served from the same domain as the CSS file in which it is enclosed. This is a pain since it means that Firefox will only retrieve and render the font files on one of my URLs at any moment in time, this of course makes my blog look rather silly for visitors on the other URL :-( Server related options seem to be reconfiguring my server to redirect from eddgrant.com to www.eddgrant.com, alternatively there is an access-control-allow-origin header which I could set to remedy this. However I wondered if it might be more elegant if Roller could be modified to dynamically generate the URL during calls to $url.resource() based on the requested URL. Anyone have any thoughts on this? If it would generally be considered a useful requirement then shall I raise it as a feature request?
