External url rewrited

[ÉtienneOz]

Hi,
I have an issue with external links, specified in the CKE editor field in admin, using the link button.
When looking at html, it looks clean, like this:

<a href="http://externalwebsite.com"></a>

but on hover and on click, it redirect to my processwire website and then the specified url, like:

<a href="myprocesswirewebsite/mypage/http://externalwebsite.com"></a>

I guess it is a .htaccess issue but I'm not familiar with this kind of file.

Thanks in advance,

Étienne

Up! Nobody has an idea? At least a clue...

Very strange. Is that link online somewhere?

I'm thinking that there's some JS in there messing with the links, considering that base tags (if there is one in this case) won't interfere with absolute references. So yeah, please could we see the code?

Hi, thanks for the answer.

@apeisa, @Mike Anthony, yes you can see it at http://interstices.io/heritage/livres-textes/ (click on the first article, there is a red link on first line after the title).

@Mike Anthony, do you need any further code than what is available online?

If you compare the link on your site with the example you posted in the OP, you will see the problem. It’s missing the scheme part http://. If you add that it should work.

You're right, I have a script which replace some characters including colons. To avoid conflict, I rewrited urls by removing "http://". I didn't expect that it will make processwire consider it as an internal url, shame on me.

Thanks a lot!

It’s not Processwire that does that, though. It’s your browser. Any link without the scheme will be treated as local. Check this one: strabic.fr/Adobe-le-creatif-au-pouvoir
