Good day, fellow coders!
I am currently working on a mobile version of a website. We are initially using Codeigniter as framework, but as for the mobile version, we are asked also to use a bought Mobile Template package that uses jQuery Mobile.
PROBLEM:
By going to other pages (clicking on links via anchor tags, buttons, ajax redirect, etc) errors RANDOMLY occur on the following:
I have noticed that even if I add in on every link it goes, the link changes to the current full URL..
EXAMPLE:
I am in
http://localhost/m.mysite/dashboard
and from that page I am in, if I click on
<a href="<?php echo base_url();?>home/login">
the URL it will go to will be
http://localhost/m.mysite/dashboardhome/login <!-- ERROR -->
but if I refresh that page again, I will successfully see no broken links
http://localhost/m.mysite/home/login <!-- CORRECT -->
If I refresh the site, errors will be gone. Is this because jQuery mobile only do haschange and not refreshing each page?
How come it's like this even if I added <?php echo base_url(); ?>
In the application/config/config.php, I have also made sure that I did not miss to indicate my base url as http://localhost/m.mysite/
Try site_url() instead of base_url(), maybe it would help. There shouldn't be anything wrong with base_url(), but still.
Another thing - could it be something additional in your .htaccess files that makes the redirect? You could check the original link from /dashboard, just hover your mouse on the link and look what browser status bar shows. Or go to View Source.
