This element provides the information which is to be stored as attributes within the <BASE> tag between the <HEAD> tags of the Tiny EditLive! document. The element has only a HREF attribute.

The value which appears within the <base> element will appear within the actual EditLive! document between the <HEAD> tags in a <BASE> tag. 

Configuration Element Tree Structure

<html>
<head>
<base>

<editLive>
   <document>
      <html>
         <head>
            <base ... />
         </head>
      </html>
   </document>
   ...
</editLive>

Optional Attributes

href

This specifies the URL of a document whose server path is to be used as the base URL for all relative references in the document.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to specify the URL http://www.yourserver.com/ as the value for the base URL.

<editLive>
    <document>
        <html>
            <head>
                <base href="http://www.yourserver.com/"/>
                ...
            </head>
            ...
        </html>
    </document>
    ...
</editLive>

Remarks

If the <base> element is not specified then EditLive! will use the base location of the page which it resides in as the base URL. For example, if the instance of EditLive! appeared in the page http://www.yourserver.com/editlive.html, then the instance of EditLive! in that page will use http://www.yourserver.com as its base URL.

The <base> element can appear only once within the <head> element.

The <base> element must be a complete tag; it cannot contain a tag body. Therefore, the tag must be closed in the same line. See the example below:

<base href=.../>
