Is there an easy one-shot way to deal with default intralinks when moving partial source code from its original site to FR?

I'd like a shortcut to cutting and pasting the original site's addy into each and every offending link.

Thanks!

If you mean, when you paste the original sites html source code, and the links are of the form /news/story0222.html, instead of http://www.newssite.com/news/story0222.html, then the answer is no.

At least, not that I have found. I too usually go through and paste in the offending url to fix the problem. Maybe someone else has a better solution?

I don't know if FR allows it, but the proper approach is to have the entire article containing the links in question enclosed in a <base href="address-of-original-page">...</base> pair.
