[opencms-dev] Site URI Appended to Relative Links

[Ed Knutson]

Hello all,

I have a website configured like this:

The Struts JSP content resides in the ROOT webapp under Tomcat 5. 
OpenCms is installed at the /opencms path under the same host.

I can easily link from the ROOT context to OpenCms by building URL's like:

<a href="/opencms/opencms/index.html">

I want to link from OpenCms VFS files back to the ROOT context like:

<a href="/pricing/index.jsp">

However, when I save links like these, the site URI is appended to the 
link automatically in the controlcode like:

/sites/fcac/pricing/index.jsp

I want the system to save links relative to the ROOT as-is without 
messing up links that are relative to the current folder.  That is, if 
VFS content links to something without a / at the start of the link, it 
is OK (but not necessary?) to translate the link, but if the link starts 
with /, just let it link to the ROOT webapp.

Is there a configuration option that controls this?  I usually link to 
gallery content by using /opencms/opencms/system/galleries....  It is ok 
if other VFS-to-VFS links need to be built in that way.

I am not using static export.
