absolute and relative URLs... help!
I'm having a problem with the URL scraper and links within the portal.
Unfortunately the iPlanet documentation seems to be written for people
who don't need manuals...
My portal server and gateway server are running on the same box, portal.
I am pointing to a web page on another server, web. The referenced page
appears in the portal page properly, however clicking on any link or
javascript results in the wrong URL being presented.
For example:
Page in portal=http://web/directory/page.html
Link on page=http://web/directory/page2.html
The portal server displays the linked page properly, however clicking on
the link gives:
https://portal/directory/page2.html
instead of:
https://portal:443/http://web/directory/page2.html
Similar behavior is seen for JavaScript:
javaScript:openWindow('/directory/page3.html')
tries to open //portal/directory/page3.html rather than
//web/directory/page3.html.
The documentation is not helping me very much. Can someone explain how
to correct this behavior? I've been systematically going through the use
gateway, rewrite URL, and all the other settings I can find.
Tomorrow's problem: why doesn't the HTTP Basic Authentication want to
remember passwords... I'm authenticating against an NT domain, but when
I try to link to a passworded page on that NT server I have to enter the
userID/password again, even though it's the same as the portal server's.
thanks,
tg.
