53951 - [rfe] make bug# link on show_bug.cgi an absolute link

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Jesse Ruderman]

The bug# link on show_bug.cgi should be an absolute link so that users can use 
the link after saving a copy of the page.

This will be a piece of cake to implement and will be a useful feature.

Just change "<A HREF=\"show_bug.cgi?id=$bug_id\">" to
"<A HREF=\"" . Param('urlbase') . "show_bug.cgi?id=$bug_id\">"

What's the benefit of users saving a copy of the page?  Is it for any easy way
for them to get to a specific bug number quickly?

The "Mozilla bug" link on b.m.o kind of does this already, although I suspect it
might not work on all browsers.

Probably would be more useful in the buglist.cgi links than in the bug form.

Comment 5

[Jesse Ruderman]

Yes, absolute links on buglist.cgi would be very cool.  Would using a <base 
href=> for all cgi pages (instead of making certain links absolute) be a good 
idea?

Sorry for the spam, but I needed to be able to query for all of these correctly.
