    use absolute links, not relative links. In other words, use

    href=”http://www.mydomain2.com/my-page/my-sub-page/” or, if you are linking to a URL in the same installation, at the least
    href=”/my-page/my-sub-page/” where /my-page indicates a folder or page in the web root folder.

    If you use relative links like href=”my-page/my-sub-page” in a CMS you will have problems because the page can be displayed from different virtual positions in the folder hierarchy, thus what gets tacked onto the left end, in accordance with where the link is called from, at times will not be what you think it should be.
