This is obviously some kind of rocket science like I never imagined.
- If you want it to always go to http://www.example.com/news, then
why can't you simply use a fully qualified URL.
Because depending on the machine I'm working from the fully qualified URL could be any of
http://www.example.com/news -- which needs to work when I push the whole thing live; http://staging.example.com/news -- which needs to work while I'm testing it; http://example.local/news -- which needs to work if I'm going to be able to do any work when I'm offline or on a train. Or on an offline train. Which I spend more time doing than I really like, working on trains.
- If you want the domain to vary, then I can't see on what condition
can this varying depend (except on Drupal's installation path itself).
The domain varies depending on which site I'm working on -- my local offline copy, the public facing staging site, or the live site. I need to be able to work and test changes and invite review on the staging site, and as a matter of basic practice I want to limit the amount of steps that it takes to push code changes live.
Oh, I see. Then you could leave the menu entry as simply "news" and use a rewrite like this one
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/drupal/news RewriteRule .* /news [L]
somewhere before the last block of Drupal rewrites. That should change /drupal/news to /news.
Hence my confusion.
