I am not really sure what your problem is here. Parents act like folders as far as the browser is concerned, so nothing has really changed. Ithink your only problem is the leading slash, which will tell the browser to look at the root. So in your example, instead of writing <a href="b">, you need to write <a href="/b">.
So basically, you need to put the slash not behind "a", but in front of "b". This isn't anything that has to do with Radiant specifically, but is typical of most content management systems. I know Textpattern works similarly. Is this what you are asking?
