When I use the html <base>
tag to define a base URL for all relative links on a page, anchor links also refer directly to the base URL. Is there a way to set the base URL that would still allow anchor links to refer to the currently open page?
For example, if I have a page at http://example.com/foo/
:
Current behaviour:
<base href="http://example.com/" />
<a href="bar/">bar</a> <!-- Links to "http://example.com/bar/" -->
<a href="#baz">baz</a> <!-- Links to "http://example.com/#baz" -->
Desired behaviour:
<base href="http://example.com/" />
<a href="bar/">bar</a> <!-- Links to "http://example.com/bar/" -->
<a href="#baz">baz</a> <!-- Links to "http://example.com/foo/#baz" -->
i found a solution on this site: using-base-href-with-anchors that doesn't require jQuery and here is a working snippet:
<base href="https://example.com/">
<a href="/test">/test</a>
<a href="javascript:;" onclick="document.location.hash='test';">Anchor</a>
or without inline js, something like this:
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(){
var es = document.getElementsByTagName('a')
for(var i=0; i<es.length; i++){
es[i].addEventListener('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault()
document.location.hash = e.target.getAttribute('href')
})
}
})
