Question

I’m trying to link to an element on the same page like this

<a href="#myelement">Link</a>

...

<div id="myelement">...</div>

But the browser keeps prepending the full domain to the link and it ends up linking to

http://example.com/#myelement 

causing it to reload the page instead of moving to an element on the page. How do I get it to just link to #myelement?

Answer 1

The problem is the <base href="http://hecotravel.com/"> element, which dictates that all links are relative to http://hecotravel.com/. Therefore a link to #traveler is a link to http://hecotravel.com/#traveler, which is a different page than http://hecotravel.com/request.

Either remove the <base> element or link to request#traveler.
