I have the following code
<a href="<dtml-var "Temporal.basepath"><dtml-var sequence-item>"> Apparently, this is a relative URL reference (one that does not start with a protocol, like "http:", "file:" etc.).
The URL Reference specification requires your browser to resolve relative references into absolute URLs. It must do this by prepending a base (if the reference does not start with a '/' but is not empty) or the "current" protocol (if the reference starts with '/').
Here I want to give my filename the file system path to it as a link. My dtml varialbles will display /home/something/file.txt
but when I view my document and see the links I have
http://localhost:8080/Folder/home/something/file.txt
What do I need to do just to have the absolute filesystem path to the file. You must generate an absolute URL (probably starting with "file://".
