Re: [erpnext-user-forum] Getting Started, a couple of problems suggestions and rambling

[Anand Doshi]

Hi Ryan,

Let us continue the discussion on the developer forum.

Here is the change which was done to mitigate the app.html issue:
https://github.com/webnotes/wnframework/commit/0631708cd04df3163b6d22385d35125e0cd8e748

As you can see, get_base_url function extracts the part of the url
prior to the app.html.
To test if it is working on your system, please start the
developer's/web console of your browser when logged into your erpnext
installation. Then, call:
wn.urllib.get_base_url()

you should be getting something like this:
http://sun.computerking.ca:18188

If not, please let me know what you are getting.

Thanks,
Anand.

I no this is more than you asked for but there are some questionable looking entries in there.  I think most of them have to do with some features i disabled using the ERPNext setup page.

Looks like it is getting the correct url when i run the requested command

Also i looked at the dom.js file to make sure the fix was there and it seems right

 // returns the base url with http + domain + path (-index.cgi or # or ?)
        get_base_url: function() {
                var url= window.location.href.split('#'

)[0].split('?')[0].split('app.html')[0];
                if(url.substr(url.length-1, 1)=='/') url = url.substr(0, url.length-1)
