Redirecting without concatenating

[mannyee]

hey guys!!

 

I am trying to redirect a page to other pages by using anchors <a> in html as follows:

<

  Quote

      <a href="<?php echo WEB_ROOT; ?>admin/" class="leftnav">Home</a>

      <a href="<?php echo WEB_ROOT; ?>admin/category/" class="leftnav">Category</a>

      <a href="<?php echo $self; ?>?logout" class="leftnav">Logout</a>

 

and the page in which this code resides is http://127.0.0.1/project8/admin/index.php

 

But when i click the Home link in the page the page redirects to

  Quote

http://127.0.0.1/project8/admin/project8/admin

 

where I need only http://127.0.0.1/project8/admin/.

 

The same is the case for Category

Instead of redirecting to http://127.0.0.1/project8/admin/category, the page redirects to

  Quote

http://127.0.0.1/project8/admin/project8/admin/category

 

and here WEB_ROOT is calculated to project8

 

What should i do now?

 

Thanks in advance!!

Try removing the WEB_ROOT from your links.

But if i did that i would be able to move , say to categories folder, but i would have to go back to the Home to go to the Product(which i omitted in the code for brevity). I want to visit the category pages and without moving back to the index page(home) i wud want to move to the products page by directly clicking the products link

If WEB_ROOT contains "project8," then you should be using absolute paths, not relative.

 

Ex:

<a href="/<?php echo WEB_ROOT; ?>/admin/" class="leftnav">Home</a>
