Why can't I use relative URLs with IE7?
- by gomezuk
Hello everyone. I've been Googling for a while and can't seem to find an answer to this question. My problem is as follows:
For my jquery, I need my links to be relative rather than absolute. My PHP is set to return relative urls and everything is working fine, until I test it in IE7. For some reason, IE7 keeps changing my relative urls to abosulute, which breaks my js script. Is this normal? Is there a way to get around it?
For example:
IE8, Chrome, Firefox, Safari etc -
<a href='/page' onclick='click_handler(this);return false;'>clicky</a>
IE7 -
<a href='http://www.myurl.com/page' onclick='click_handler(this);return false;'>clicky</a>
