How can I convert a relative link in Mechanize to an absolute one?
absolute-path, hyperlink, mechanize, relative-url, ruby
Solution
You can just merge the page uri (which is always absolute) with the link uri:
page.uri.merge link.uri
Problem
Is there is a way to convert a Mechanize relative-link object to another one which contains the absolute URL. Mechanize must know the absolute link, because I can call the `click` method on relative links too.
