Thanks, but I forgot to mention that I also use the 'text' attribute and the headhtml prop in a POST with action=parse. I use this command to implement a preview in an external editor (the text is not in the database yet). It would be nice if it was possible to implement an option to get absolute urls but a simple replace does the trick as long as the page does not contain source HTML :-) Cheers, Marc _______________________________________________ Mediawiki-api mailing list Mediawiki-api@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-api
