Issue Summary

I have had reports of problems with navigation through my site. People would have links with the HTTP_HOST part stripped off. On Explorer 6.0.26 (WinXP), I can reproduce. All forms go to urls looking like: http:///foo/bar where they should have been http://insomniaque.org/foo/bar.

I have had such reports from people using Netscape on MacOS too. I have yet to receive more precise information on the version there, though..

Anyone else can reproduce? There was another person having such a problem that posted to the forum a similar report.

FWIW, we're using a slightly patched Polder theme with a lightly patch drupal-CVS core, dating back arpil 16th.

That was Netscape 4.5 on MacOS 9.2.2. User told me upgrading to Netscape 7 solved the problem. IMHO, that's beside the point. Everything should be working ok with 4.5 too, and I was able to reproduce on IE 6, so there's clearly something fishy going on.

Make sure the $base_url variable is set in your configuration file. Check the includes/conf.php file for more information. If that fixes your problem, please close this bug report.

I could reproduce this problem last night so I'm assigning this to myself. (The comment pager code is quite complex and it would surely help if we could reuse the normal pager.)

Sorry, my last comment was attached to the wrong bug report. I can not reproduce this problem. Btw, are you using IIS or Apache?

This one was marked Critical. I'm assigning it Normal, as I'm pretty sure it's due to a simple misconfiguration of the $base_url variable in conf.php.

Anarcat2 - could you please confirm that this is the case. If we don't hear back on this one within a week, I shall WONTFIX it.
