Description Marc van Woerkom 2002-09-03 23:00:11 UTC
The navigation bar used in error messages by host people.freebsd.org links to the wrong host (people.freebsd.org instead of www.freebsd.org).

Fix: 

Make the links in the navigation bar host absolute (href="http://www.freebsd.org/..)
How-To-Repeat: I was looking for phk's junior kernel hacker task list and 
could not find a link on http://people.freebsd.org/~phk, 
thus I tried a random guess

  http://people.freebsd.org/~phk/tasks

This yields an error message page (doc not found).
Then I clicked on "Documentation" in the navigation taskbar of the generated error page.
This gave another error:

  FreeBSD.org - Document not found
  The file 
     http://people.freebsd.org/docs.html 
  does not exist at this server. You are coming from 
     http://people.freebsd.org/~phk/tasks. 

Obviously the navigation bar uses host relative links instead of absolute links.

phk's webpage is not under general CVS control.

This is not about my homepage, this is about what happens when 
people type wrong URLS.
