Rewriting URL when <base href="" /> tag is set

[kctech]

Great plugin - love it!

I use MODX CMS, that requires the to be set. I've noticed that when this is set the plugin will remove anything preceding the base URL when adding the #. During static development, when the base tag is not used, this issue does not occur.

E.g.
A dev site with tag of <base href="http://localhost/dev_site/dist/" />

When scrolling, a page, like:
http://localhost/dev_site/dist/content-page.html

Will be rewritten to:
http://localhost/dev_site/dist/#scrollify-section

Instead of:
http://localhost/dev_site/dist/content-page.html#scrollify-section

Hope that makes sense, if not I'll upload a demo somewhere

This is very odd as Scrollify just uses history.replaceState to manipulate the fragment identifier. It shouldn't be able to alter the URI paths. I'll do some research to see how this could be possible.

Thanks Luke, if it's useful, here's one dev site I'm experiencing this behavior on - I've only narrowed it down to the <base> tag because that's the only obvious thing I could see was different...

Same here. URL like
"/index.php?id=16#sectionname" will be "/1#sectionname".

I use TYPO3 and had to set config.baseURL = 0 to make scrollify work.

Can this be investigated further? Still an issue (with the currently newest scrollify version). And I experience this on firefox as well
