There has been a lot of discussion on one of the big webmaster boards
about adding the base href tag to all of your pages. This is to prevent
some types of hijacking and also to solve some situations where google
has canonical issues with your site.
I'm using FP 2003.
I added the base href tag as http://www.mysite.com and
http://www.mysite.com/ via the page properties dialog. That works ok.
However, I have a number of sites with a total of several thousand
pages. I intended to use the find and replace feature to insert the
tag. i.e. change all of the head to head base href="www.mydomain.com"
(I left off the<> for this post).
When I do that I found that all of the FP navigation was broken. The
nav bars said "add this page to your navigation".
I played around a bit more and found that you can add the base href
only through the page properties dialog. Any attempt to add that tag
manually or even move it somewhere will break the navigation bars.
Tools, recalc web does not work either.
Is there any way around this so I can do a sitewide add of the base
href tag without visiting the page properties of each individual page?
thanks
