the url may either be an array or a link well its fairly easy if you have www.domain.de/myapp/... via mod_rewrite mapped to /myapp/ webroot/
if you use $html->url() or link() you get /myapp/controller/action now - include this link in the $html->link() again, you get /myapp/ myapp/controller/action which of course results in 404s so never use them inside each other if you are working relatively to root (http://... full urls would work) even if you are working directly at top level - it would still be wrong as it would break as soon as you change the environment or try it out locally with localhost/... etc On 29 Dez., 13:51, John Andersen <j.andersen...@gmail.com> wrote: > Sorry, I just tried to move my document root away from the application > webroot, nothing was added to the url, it looks exactly like it always > do!
