Question

I’m looking for a constant or variable that will provide a public path to my application root.

I have got so far as FULL_BASE_URL which gives me http://www.example.com but I have the added problem of my application being in a sub directory (e.g. http://www.example.com/myapp/).

Is there any way to get the path like http://www.example.com/myapp/ in my controller?

$this->Html->url( '/', true );

In general you should generate all links with that function, see http://book.cakephp.org/view/1448/url
