I wonder if someone can help with a problem/?bug in 05.02.01

I have a host site running in which I've built a number of Parent postals. These are used to support medical student web projects.

The host is called DotnetNuke and the Portals run as Portal1, Portal2 etc

So the Host URL is http://Localhost/dotnetnuke and the portals as localhost/dotnetnuke/portal1 etc

This all works find except that if a link is set up in a page on the portals to for example portal1/home

it actually links to dotnetnuke/home.

When setting up the links in the FCKEditor the drop down shows only the pages from the portal but the link that is generated in the URl box points to the host URL. The attached shows the screen capture.

The postal page is:

http://129.11.xx.xx/dotnetnuke/port...ptoms.aspx

but the generated URl is dotnetnuke/Symptoms.aspx

Can anyone explain why this is happening. Is it a bug in the Editor?

Where does the mapping come from?

Thanks for your time on this.

I'm guessing it's related to operating in a localhost environment. To get around this problem, I would keep it simple and not use the FCK function of selecting a page and just copy the URL of the page that you wish to link to and add it directly into the FCK Editor.

Thanks. It happens even with remote access - i.e. not local host. I think it's an error in the FCK editor and the way it interacts with the friendly URL rules. I've posted on the DNN forums but haven't had replies yet. If I do I'll post here. Rick

ok thanks for the info, yes that sounds like friendly url problems, keep us posted, thanks,
