I am using the code posted here to do something with a third party software
http://www.interworks.com/blogs/jvarner/2012/07/12/proxying-tableau-server-content-using-php-and-trusted-tickets
however its utterly frutrating that something as simple as
$fullUrl = "http://{$server}/trusted/{$ticket}/{$url}";
returns me the following
moOaH6BAKFMGGszd_IQHTvpAhttp://<server>/trusted/1/views/<dashboard>?format=png
instead of
http://<server>/trusted/moOaH6BAKFMGGszd_IQHTvpA/views/<dashboard>?format=png
completely beats me. Any idea why ? Is it something to do with the variable $ticket which has the value of moOaH6BAKFMGGszd_IQHTvpA in this case ?
