Node.absUrl returns empty String

[hachenberg]

Hi

I tried different nodes, but all I get is an empty String when calling .absUrl(.attr("href")). In contrast, when calling .attr("abs:href") I DO GET THE CORRECT absolute URL!?

So it seems something is wrong with the absUrl(...) function.

Cheers, Christian

Hi,

I think you are calling the node.absUrl() method incorrectly. The argument to absUrl() should be the attribute key (e.g. "href"), not the attribute's value, which is what you're sending.

E.g. try: linkEl.absUrl("href");

I have updated the javadoc to provide a clearer example.

Thanks,
Jonathan

Oh, that might be the reason. Thanks a lot for your help and effort!
