I have setup an ez site with "news" siteaccess.On this site I have this two codes...
Code 1:
<A HREF={active|ezurl}>News</A>
Code 2:
<A HREF={active|ezroot}>News</A>
The first one produces this link:
index.php/news/active
and the second this link:
active
As I can se in the docs the ezroot should produce the same result as the ezurl but without the index.php. So in my case should produce: "news/active". So why it doesn't? Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Hi Marko!
The "ezroot" operator only prepends the input, in your example "active", with the "url" of your eZ publish directory.
Say, for example, you have installed your eZ publish in /var/www/html/mystuff/ez and this directory is accessible via http://localhost/mystuff/ez. Then {"active"|ezroot} will be "/mystuff/ez/address". If you can access this directory via http://myezsite/ it will become just "/active". This operator is used for accessing images, js, css files in the design and var directories.

Then the documentation for the ezroot operator is incorrect. Am I right?

Hi,
Yes, the old ezroot docs might be a bit misleading - it does not include the name of the siteaccess; what it does is that it gives you the path to the root of the eZ publish directory. We're sorry about the inconvenience - the "mistake" has been removed from the new docs.
Sincerely Yours
