When loading some cached pages using Konqueror, the base URL setting is incorrect. As a result the stylesheet doesn't load, nor do the various javascripts. Worse, the links don't work.

For example in the version of this very page, cached before this writing, the base URL gets set to "", thus all of the URLs appear to be on the local filesystem like: "/en/article/Example". The cached version of en:User:Cjensen has the nearly the same problem, except that the base URL is set to "user:" causing Konqueror to complain about not understanding the protocol "user:", since it thinks this is the URL: "user:/en/article/Example"

I've saved the source of this page in it's current cached form, for upload. --Mark 03:34, 20 Nov 2004 (EST)

Actually the problem is still there, so maybe I don't need to upload the old version afterall. -- 81.63.21.112 03:50, 20 Nov 2004 (EST)

Other pages such as en:Copenhagen/Østerbro work fine. -- 81.63.21.112 03:54, 20 Nov 2004 (EST)

This seems to be working now. Maybe it was fixed as a side effect of one of the other fixes. -- Mark 10:23, 21 Nov 2004 (EST)
