Hi, how in PHP can i create the similar header as following ? <head> <base href="www.mywebsite.com"> </head> thx. A.

just incase everybody else went down a complete tangent on this one <head> <base href="<?php echo $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; ?>"> </head> it's not nice, elegant, the *proper* way to do things but it'll do the job if I understand you correctly

I don't see anything wrong with it. It looks nice, elegant and proper to me. Cheers, tedd

thanks tedd, to be full proof though there's a lot lacking; for example http/1.0 browsers don't pass through HTTP_HOST seeing as it's only in http/1.1; also even on http/1.1 it's sometimes spoofed; further there's the whole HTTPS_HOST to concider; there's only one full proof method and thats to simple hard code or define it:

I think you mean "fool proof" when you say "full proof". It's synonymous with "idiot proof". Cheers, Rob.

indeed; I also meant "consider" && "simply"; I also meant: define('PUBLIC_BASE_HREF' , 'http://php.net/') <head> <base href="<?php echo PUBLIC_BASE_HREF; ?>" /> </head> and further thinking there has to be an easier / cleaner way of getting "http://" / "https://" in php.. ps: please excuse the typo's etc.
