I'm not dying to go the .htaccess route, I promise, but I can't figure out how to persuade drupal that a path in the menu like "/news/" is relative to the whole site, not relative to drupal.
Try path aliasing, e.g. follows:
<code file="/etc/httpd/conf.d/mydomain.conf"> <VirtualHost *> DocumentRoot "e:\var\www\mydomain" ServerName www.example.com ServerAlias example Alias /drupal e:\var\www\drupal-5.2 Alias /bin e:\var\www\bin Alias /sqladmin e:\var\www\phpMyAdmin-2.6.1 </VirtualHost> </code>
I think this means that I would have to define an Alias for anything I want to link to from within Drupal's menus system that lives outside of my Drupal installation, right?
That kind of defeats the point.
And as I've discovered doesn't do what you want from the menu code. However if you create a block and fill the body with the likes of ``<a href="/news/">News</a><br/>'' it behaves nicely. Be sure give the block a nice title and you'll need to activate it once you create it.
