Description: ------------ When $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ends on /, HTTP::absoluteURI() calling dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) results in everything after the leading / getting chopped off, which causes incorrect redirects for relative URIs. That attached patch against HEAD fixes this behaviour by not touching PHP_SELF when it comes with a trailing slash. Test script: --------------- Assuming $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] is /foobar/. <?php require_once "HTTP.php"; HTTP::redirect("page.html"); ?> Expected result: ---------------- A redirect to http://myhost.tld/foobar/page.html. Actual result: -------------- A redirect to http://myhost.tld/page.html.

The HTTP package trims PATH_INTO (in your example "/" or "/foobar/") to resolves relative URLs to the script itself. The patch cannot be accepted because it would cause a backward compatibility break. I'm working on solution to handle redirection taking into account the PATH_INFO, REQUEST_URI and generally friendlier to rewrite rules.
