Yes, this is because you typed in a relative URL.  This is simply bad
HTML, not a bug in Zope.

If you want to reference an off-site resource in an HTML anchor tag, you
MUST specify 'http://machine/'.  Simply putting the machine name in
there will not do it for any platform.

I would suggest checking out any one of a gazillion good books on HTML.
