TYPO3 Core

After investigating a bit more, the base url in case of relative url is not computed with the TYPO3 website itself (it was just a thought due to my own setup when testing this bug). However it is not computed correctly anyway:

When telling to index url http://www.domain.tld/page1/subpage/foo.html (with or without foo.html in config)

any relative url will be prefixed by http://www.domain.tld/ instead of http://www.domain.tld/page1/subpage/. This is wrong and causes the symptom described.

Moreover, according to http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#h-12.4, conversion from relative url to full url should first try to use a "base href" tag if present and then rely on implicit relative url with enclosing path.

Sorry :-/ after testing with other websites, I found out that my patch did not handle "relative" links which are absolute:

<a href="/somepage.html">

That is, starting with a slash '/' and as such relative to the hostname. v2 takes care of this meaning all links are now handled properly:

Full link:
<a href="http://www.domain.tld/subsite/some-page.html&quot;>

Relative link (takes base href or computed base href into account):
<a href="some-other-page.html">

Absolute link:
<a href="/subsite/some-other-page.html">
