wierd output in links

[Hailwood]

 

if i have this in a config file

$config->base['url_path'] = 'http://localhost/buzzil/';

 

 

and i have this

<a href="<?php $config->base['url_path']; ?>messaging">Messaging</a>

 

 

any idea when i am on a page iwth a url like

http://localhost/buzzil/templates/list/email

 

 

why instead of the expected output of

<a href="http://localhost/buzzil/messaging">Messaging</a>

am i getting

<a href="http://localhost/buzzil/templates/list/messaging">Messaging</a>

 

 

dont know if it will help but here is my htaccess file

 

 

Options +FollowSymlinks

 

 

RewriteEngine on

 

 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

 

 

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?page=$1

You might want to post the code that actually makes these weird links.

That is the code there

<a href="<?php $config->base['url_path']; ?>messaging">Messaging</a>

 

the config class is just an empty class with magic methods for get and set

 

so i define config things like so

 

 

$config = new Config();

 

 

//BASE SETTINGS

//------------------

$config->base = array();

$config->base['abs_path'] = $abs_path;

$config->base['url_path'] = 'http://localhost/buzzil/';

$config->base['temp_dir'] = 'tmp/';

$config->base['env']      = 'dev';

 

 

 

so the expected output from accessing any url with this code in the file

<a href="<?php $config->base['url_path']; ?>messaging">Messaging</a>

is

<a href="http://localhost/buzzil/messaging">Messaging</a>

 

 

but instead from a url such as

http://localhost/buzzil/templates/list/email

 

 

i get

<a href="http://localhost/buzzil/templates/list/messaging">Messaging</a>

 

and yes thorpe,

at midnight when i have had less than 3 hours sleep in the past 48 hours i do fail at spelling

You never echo the value within the $config array so it shouldn't be working at all.

 

<a href="<?php echo $config->base['url_path']; ?>messaging">Messaging</a>

8D yeah just saw that,

 

so it means that the actual link that was being created was

<a href="messaging">

 

which explains it.

 

I think i kinda deserve anything you give me now lol.
