Alright, as I said I'm using the following to create a base to refer to
whenever I want to use a link to redirect back to the page itself:
$base="http:/"."/".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
I was going to say the problem is coming from using HTTP_HOST but even
if I remove that and type the url in by hand, the issue seems to keep
surfacing around using a subdomain and how someone would enter the page.
On one hand when I'm using the editor provided by Yahoo, when I test the
page out I get one url (1). Then there's another url (2) if I hand type
it in using the subdomain, and then a whole other url (3) if I don't.
(1) ***.com/home/index.php
(2) home.***.com
(3) www.***.com/home/index.php
If the only problem was when I was using the editor, that's an easy work
around simply by testing it one way and changing it to work when it's
finally up, but not everybody will enter the page using the domain and
that's where I'm finding the biggest hang up.
