Relative Links Fix for Wordpress

My first plugin for public consumption–hope this helps out, fellow writers!

A blogger I work with will sometimes copy headlines from his Wordpress-generated homepage and paste them into the post-editing window.  In Firefox, this has the unfortunate result of converting absolute urls into relative ones.  For example, copying the headline for this article would convert the permalink (khaotica.com) to a relative link (../).

This creates broken links when the post is viewed on the archive page and RSS feed. The links will also be broken for subscribers who receive posts via email.

Enter the Relative Links Fix. This plugin will replace relative urls with the proper absolute urls every time you save or publish a post. If you use Wordpress and can’t shake those copy-paste habits, this is the plugin for you.

As always, donations are appreciated. I promise to spend them exclusively on Oreos and soda (the creative fuel that powers developers everywhere).
