Re: creating absolute links (including site)

and by the way
you really should use the right IDE. a good PHP Editor will make it
easy for you to look it up.
i - for example - use the phpdesigner 7 which is able to include the
whole core libraries

if i move my mouse over the parameters of $html->link() i am able to
see its parameter names + documention on it.
and if i right-click on the function i will automatically jump into
the corresponding core file to the correct line of code.
very very handy - and there is nothing faster to find out what a core
function does then just looking it up in the code.
