#2 Absolute URLs for Files and Directories

[David Tanzer]

I'd prefer, when you could use more then one base - url in a webpage -- i.e optional one per
section(?). This would be useful if you have subdomains. For example: the webpage is at
www.foo.com, but a part of it is at bar.foo.com, and you want to use only one navigation
bar, where you can navigate in both. I'd leave the [baseURL] in <webpage>, but also put it
into <section> (optional), which would then override the baseURL from webpage.

It would be nice if the <section>/<directory> elements allow
using absolute URLs in their [dir] attribute. I think this
would be more consistent. I'll add a RFE for this, this
should be considered for the first version since it is
really important.

I just noticed that I misunderstood you when I posted my
last comment. Implementing the feature you want was really
easy but after I did this I am not sure anymore that it is
really useful.

When do you want to use this? Do you want to upload
subdirectories from the output somewhere else? This would
include all images for this section, including the button
images which are used in different places. Is it about
getting nice and easy to remember URLs for the subsections?

Don't get me wrong, but I don't want to add features just
because I can (this one is +6 lines including the comment
and the empty line). Give me an example where/how you want
to use this.

If you want to test yourself add this to
WebsiteProcessor.java before the directory creation around
line 480 (depends on revision):

String baseURL = section.getAttributeValue( "baseURL" );
if( baseURL != null ) {
newURL = baseURL;
}
