-------------------------------------

A simple test project would help.

>                 Key: MSITE-499
>                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-499
>             Project: Maven 2.x and 3.x Site Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: relative links, site descriptor
>    Affects Versions: 2.1.1
>         Environment: Maven 2.2.1, 
>            Reporter: Mykel Alvis
>
> All site descriptors within the several hundred projects I manage are based on a "base" value provided by a property in settings.xml.
> My hierarchy is
> <superpom>
> \- CommonParentPOM
>    +--Group1ParentPOM
>    +--Group2ParentPOM
>    \-- Group2project
> My CommonParentPOM has a <url> that is defined as:
> {noformat}
> 	<url>${default.site.view}/${artifact.namespace}</url>
> {noformat}
> default.site.view is specified in settings.xml
> artifact.namespace is basically ${repo.namespace}/${project.artifactId}-${project.version}, where repo.namespace is defined in CommonParentPOM as 
> <repo.namespace>common</repo.namespace>
> Thus, my final realized URL for CommonParentPOM generally looks like "http://documentation.ainom.net/documentation/m2-sites/common/CommonParentPOM-20-SNAPSHOT for version 20-SNAPSHOT of CommonParentPOM.
> CommonParentPOM has a menu that I want propagated to all sub-projects, so I have a menu in CommonParentPOM's site.xml as
> {noformat}
> 		<menu name="CM" inherit="bottom">
> 			<item name="Releases" href="cm_releases.html" />
> 		</menu>
> {noformat}
> For a subproject whose direct parent is CommonParentPOM and who redfines their object.namespace to be xyzabc, in the generated index.html, I get CM as an inherited menu with the "Releases" anchor's HREF set to:
> {{home/mykel/Work/site-test/test1/$%257Bdefault.site.view%257D/common/CommonParentPOM-20-SNAPSHOT/cm_releases.html}}
> It appears that the site plugin appended the path to *my filesystem's working directory* and then appended the *unrealized* link to the originally deployed site file that was inherited.  What I expected was a fully realized URL from the parent project's site deployment, in this case 
> http://documentation.ainom.net/documentation/m2-sites/common/CommonParentPOM-20-SNAPSHOT/cm_releases.html
