HREF attributes for XAMPP menu navigation

Postby xamppnerd » 02. November 2012 00:14

Hi everybody,
I was wondering if somebody could tell me something about the way in which the href attrubute in the /xampp/navi.php file works? For personal purpose, I'm trying to change some links from:

Code: Select all
<a class=n target=_blank onClick="h(this);" href=/phpmyadmin/><?=$TEXT['navi-phpmyadmin']?></a><br>


to something like this:

Code: Select all
<a class=n target=_blank onClick="h(this);" href=.phpmyadmin/><?=$TEXT['navi-phpmyadmin']?></a><br>


And the problem is that my web browser returns an inappropriate address: http://localhost/xampp/.phpmyadmin/

How can I achieve this effect: http://localhost.phpmyadmin/ ??

Thanks in advance,
Xampp Nerd :-)

Ok. I did something like that:

Code: Select all
<a class=n target=_blank onClick="h(this);" href=//localhost.phpmyadmin/><?=$TEXT['navi-zf2alb']?></a><br>


And the redirection looks fine: http://localhost.phpmyadmin/

But I still don't know how to get my address using just an ordinary 'dot' instead of double slash??
Any suggestions?

Hi xamppnerd,

The XAMPP navigation is using relative URLs. That means the TopLevelDomain (TLD) is builded with the information of the RequestURL. The browser itself build the correct RequestURL.

You can't change a relative URL to another TLD without using absolute URLs, like you done by using http://TopLevelDomain/...

Which double slash? I don't understand that question, sorry.

best wishes,

Hi Altrea,

Thanks for your prompt response.
That explains why the absolute URL, in this case my miserable double slash, which I accidentally used works correctly :-)
What a pity I can't get rid of that single ending slash on my domain address http://localhost/ <-- this one ;-)

Bests,
