I love this plugin (I'm able to get it working mostly) but I'm running
into an issue with using it in an application with an mongrel/apache
specified application level URL prefix.   This is a problem for both
uploading and viewing the file once it has been loaded.  I was able to
(manually or via 2b below) load it but then the hyperlink File Column
created was still missing the prefix. It generated the following URL:

http://mydomain.com/people/photo/4/picture.name.jpg
  instead of
http://mydomain.com/PREFIX/people/photo/4/picture.name.jpg

Is there an easy way to modify (a helper function? variables in
environment.rb ?) code to get File Column to recognize the prefix?  Is
this a rail's wide prefix that I could set?

Additionally I'm wishing that there were a way to define my prefix in
just one place, currently, running a rails application in a
subdirectory on the server requires no less than 3 modifications (for
me):

 1)
 ProxyPass /PREFIX  http://127.0.0.1:8000/PREFIX   (in apache)

 2)
 a)
   prefix: /PREFIX   (in mongrel_cluster.yml)
   OR
 b)
  ActionController::AbstractRequest.relative_url_root = "/PREFIX" (in
environment.rb) PLUS symbolic links in my public folder

 3)
 all of the hard coded links in my app/views/shared/_header html file
 for example: <a href="/PREFIX/people">people</a>

There has to be an easier, more elegant way.  Anybody know of one?

Thanks,

Dave
