First, congratulations to all for getting Moodle.org onto Moodle 2.
My moodle site uses glossary entries quite a bit to provide autolinked help. And it all works very well as long as the page is within the Moodle site. BUT if the autolink is in a discussion forum that is mailed the autolink does not work as the link is relative to the root of the current server e.g.
the <a href="../glossary/showentry.php?courseid=2&concept=How+can+I+use"
title="Frequently Asked Questions: How can I use"
class="glossary autolink glossaryid1">eMarking Assistant Support centre</a>.
If the link was absolute e..g.
<a href='http://www.emarkingassistant.com/community/mod/glossary/showentry.php?courseid=2&eid=2&displayformat=dictionary">
it would work anywhere which I think would be MUCH better.
Do others agree? If so reply here and I will enter a tracker item. Does anyone have a workaround? Or a good reason for Moodle to generate them as relative links.
