link path puzzler

[Bastien]

Hi All

Working on a site and run into an interesting problem. in my code I have a link to a delete.php page.

$sHTML .= "<a href='delete.php?id=".$rows['file_id']."'>Delete File</a></td>";

What's funky is that when I click the link, the relative path is

http://sitename.ca/delete.php

and I get a 404 (page not found error)

If I manually type http://www.sitename.ca/delete.php?id=1 then the delete works...

How can I resolve this?

I wish my computer would do what I want it to do,
instead of what I tell it to do...

not sure how

http://sitename.ca/delete.php

can be a relative path.

it sounds like you have a slight dns issue which your host can resolve (or admin if you have the requisite access).

in php you can always hard code the statement, of course.

$sHTML .= "<a href=\"[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.sitename.ca/delete.php?id={$rows[/URL]['file_id']}\">Delete File</a></td>";

Try this:

$sHTML .= "<a href=\"/delete.php?id={$rows['file_id']}\">Delete File</a></td>";
