url rewrite and integration

Well, after my host sold out to another provider, and the platform setup is different than before, I can now get the url rewrite to work. I just installed and configured the module from gallery and viola, it works 'out of the box', without modification. But, it causes some issues with broken relative links in the integration. (The links are actually phpbb links, but the url rewrite breaks them.)

Thanks goes to Jim at OMA [i-world.net] for inspiring the fix for this!

IF you can get the url rewrite module installed and working in embedded mode, these changes will fix the broken phpbb links (memberlist, groups, login/logout. etc) when viewing gallery albums.

Open:
gallery2.php

Find:

Code: › $template->assign_vars(array(
'PAGE_TITLE' => $page_title,

Replace with:

Code: › $template->assign_block_vars('switch_enable_phpbb_base', array());

$template->assign_vars(array(
'PHPBB_BASE' => $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . substr($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], 0, strrpos($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], '/')),
'PAGE_TITLE' => $page_title,

Open:
/templates/subSilver/overall_header.tpl

Find the original mod:

Code: › {GALLERY2_JAVASCRIPT}
{GALLERY2_CSS}

After, add:

Code: › 
<base href="http://{PHPBB_BASE}/">

Thanks again to Jim for discovering the initial fix!
