Hi Tim,
It looks like setting / might work in most cases, but not for me. My
application is completely i18n and an uri is built like
http://mywebsite.com/en/my/page.
For hyperlinks you want to go to another page but maintain the current
language. Therefore I have hrefs like "another/page" and a base href
"http://mywebsite.com/en/";. I'd like not to change this behaviour
because it has also benefits for eg SEO (all content has another uri:
no different content, or languages, at the same uri).
If you point to '/', you'll go to http://mywebsite.com/ and loose the
current language. That's why '/' as a href is not working (unless I
create some ugly hacks like remembering the language and redirect to
it).
How would it be if you used MVC pages instead of URI ? I found when I
used MVC with emtpy controller and action elements they were rendered
as links, not span elements.
