[opencms-dev] Problem with navigation links/css when viewing page from outside OpenCms

[Nicholas Abboud]

Hello,

When I view an OpenCms page outside of OpenCms itself, after publishing it, 
a problem pops up. The links, like those to the stylesheet and for 
navigation, don't seem to be translated properly. For example, when 
previewing the document within OpenCms, it converts the links to their 
proper path, meaning for instance /opencms/opencms/my_module_dir/...; 
viewing it after publishing, it appears merely as /my_module_dir/..., so 
the navigation and css links end up pointing to empty locations.

I actually, fixed this by static exporting all the files, but found a 
different problem. I'm managing some dynamic data by passing it through the 
pages as URL parameters thanks to JSP, but this doesn't help at all with 
the static html pages that get generated by the export. I've had some 
initial success in using JavaScript within the JSP files to handle the 
parameters instead, but it's a bit of a messy solution.

I'm wondering if anyone can give some insight into this problem.

Thanks,
Nick
