I'm having problems getting <base href> to work in a particular scenerio.
First, here's my file layout:
Root:
index.cgi
[cgi-bin] -> contact.pl
[pages] -> contact.tmpl
-> topnav.tmpl
-> thankyou.tmpl
Now, here's the salient code
INDEX.CGI:
$template = HTML::Template->new(filename => 'pages/contact.tmpl');
CONTACT.TMPL:
<base href="http://132.321.33.321/"; />
<tmpl_include name="pages/topnav.tmpl">
<form action="../cgi-bin/contact.pl"...>
TOPNAV.TMPL
<tmpl_include name="../pages/topnav.tmpl">
...
<li><a href="?p=6">LINKS</a></li>
...
'Base href' works in the initial call of contact.tmpl from index.cgi in the
root. But if contact.tmpl is called from cgi-bin/contact.pl, e.g.,if errors
are found in validation and I'm returning the screen with 'associate', H::T
returns an error that it can't find my includes.
So, I dropped the <base href> and went to relative paths. It worked fine
until I call thankyou.tmpl from contact.pl after the form is processed. The
navigation is messed up because it's trying to do "cgi-bin/contact.pl?p=6"
I tried:
$template->param(HOME => $ENV{HOME});
$template->param(PATH => $ENV{PATH});
but the includes error occurs in the
$template = HTML::Template->new(filename => '../pages/contact.tmpl');
Bottomline, is there a reason <base href> does not work when calling .tmpls
from my cgi-bin/contact.pl?
Thanks, Brad
