HI, I’m a bit confused about something simple… in general, Radiant pages are served up as: page/pg/123/ (with a slash) but it also renders the same if I go to page/pg/123 (without a slash) In general, it doesn’t matter. But, I’ve got pages that have a lot of relative links between them (inserted into the HTML directly). So, I have a relative link to …/124 but the actual position of what it references matters… depending on whether the current URL/ page is rendered is page/pg/123/ (with a slash) or page/pg/123 (without a slash) Any ideas on what I can do? Cheers, Mohit. 11/4/2008 | 2:52 AM. ---

Mohit, The best answer I can give is to configure your webserver so that it redirects requests not ending in a slash to their slash equivalents, or vice versa (there are HOWTOs for Apache). Sean ---

There was quite a bit of descussion in this post: [http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/111522](http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/111522) I don’t think anything was done to implement the auto-redirect within Radiant as discussed (though I’d still like to see it). I think most are configuring their servers to do the redirect. -Chris ---

D’oh. Sean beat me to it (as usual). Oh and I meant ‘discussion’ 😉 -Chris ---

This does bring up another question, how are anchors handled? Page with slash, without slash or doesn’t matter? Cheers, Mohit. 11/4/2008 | 3:19 AM.
