Okay, I'm trying to catch up, so can't dig too deep for the full answer to this right now. I can tell you that you're going to be limited in your ability to do this the way you want. If you go through WSGI, you'll find that a WSGIScriptAlias gets set up. You can use that to get the relative path to the top of the web server. However, that does still leave you with an open question: What domain is being served up for this? So far as I can tell, WSGI doesn't provide the domain, so you are not able to use any code to determine, programmatically, the domain to use. That's only resolved by issuing a request to that domain. This can help, but you're still going to have to have something, somewhere, to tell you the domain for the links to send out. -- Michael J.
