Why is the subsite coded into the POST url?

Can you give an example of a page where this happens? If you use relative URLs in the HTML the browser will construct the full URL based on the HTTP location.

Sure, I can give you an example.

Check out these URL's:

http://mercado.softwarepublico.gov.br/register/

http://teste.softwarepublico.gov.br/mpv/register/

In both of them, the action link for register is /mpv/register. The request processor is going to redirect the request from /mpv/register to /register if you use host-node mapped URL, but the POST will fail because the bug I've mentioned above.

Right now the only way it works is because this patch I've supplied.
