439525 - customize page uses absolute links instead of relative for download box

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Samuel Sidler (old account; do not CC)]

The download box on https://www.authstage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/customize/ uses absolute links for "Release Notes" and "Other Systems and Languages" which means right now they link to mozilla.com.

Probably not critical, but should fix.

Oh, spoke to soon. This is the case on:
  https://www.authstage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.0/releasenotes/
  https://www.authstage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/organic/
  https://www.authstage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/customize/
  https://www.authstage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/security/

But not on https://www.authstage.mozilla.com/en-US/products/firefox/

Maybe intentional?

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc (PTO until April 26)]

yes, this is intentional, the download box code is a svn external also used on
mozilla europe not only mozilla.com, so these links have to be absolute to work
everywhere. The main firefox page is an exception, we do locale detection there
for the box so it is not php generated but uses older js code. Resolving as
invalid.

Since I looked it up and mid-aired pascal, I'll just mention it's from bug 431462.
