Ideally, the Request Object would implement a getAbsoluteUrl() method. OR you can use getBaseURL() along with $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] -- Eric Marden

Hi, I want the absolute URL to the current website, however, the getBaseUrl() method of the request object returns a relative URL. So, I've found that Zend_OpenId, among other useful methods, includes the absoluteUrl() method. However, of course Zend_OpenId isn't meant as a URL manipulation class. Thus, my question is: what would be considered best practice in this case? Thanks, -- Vincent
