Default link prefix

In the links module if link is not started with http it becomes something like "http://localhost/mojoportal/Modules/mypage.aspx" (in my case).
It would be better to resolve such URLs from the site root.

Re: Default link prefix

I'm thinking it might be better to enforce fully qualified links and maybe use a dropdown which defaults to http and has an option for https kind of like the FCKeditor has when you add a link. I thought also of using a RegularExpressionValidator but the dropdown would be more user friendly and make it clear to the user.

Re: Default link prefix

An option to use local links will also be very nice.

For example, I want to use this module to implement onsite quick links. It would be nice if they work both on development and production environment without any changes to the database.

Re: Default link prefix

I can see the value in that, it could be another dropdown item that says "relative to site root ~/". It will be a little more work to implement but not much. I will probably wait until after I finish the profile work to do this though.
