BTW: Mozilla currently has the same problem with <base> and non-standard ports. What document should I refer to when reporting the bug? RFC ??? -----Original Message----- From: Martijn Pieters [mailto:mj@antraciet.nl] Sent: Sunday, October 03, 1999 10:36 PM To: Anthony Baxter Cc: Sascha Matzke; zope@zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] w3m (alternative to lynx) and Zope. Hmm.... that would indeed be the cause of the misbehaving BASE tag. HTTPRequest constructs the BASE either from HTTP_HOST, or, if omitted, from SERVER_NAME and SERVER_PORT. You can confirm this by opening http://servername:serverport/path/to/Zope/REQUEST in w3m (in your case http://bespin:9090/REQUEST), and then look for the HTTP_HOST and SERVER_URL environment variables. If they read bespin, and not bespin:9090, then w3m is to blame and a bug report should be filed with its creator.
