Hi.
I'm writing a servlet that will take a parameter with the GET method. The
parameter is supposed to be an url, and then the servlet should generate a
html page with the link to the url
The line of code used to do that is
out.println("<P><FONT COLOR=/#8000FF/><A HREF=/"+url+"/>Link</A></FONT></P>");
url is a string that was initialized with getParameter.
The problem is that when the page is generated, the name of the server is
appended to the link. I've tried this using servletrunner and vqserver. In
example, if the url is www.yahoo.com the link points to
localhost/www.yahoo.com. Apparently this is done by the server.
Is there any way to avoid this, and to get the link pointing to the real URL?
thanks
Hector
