I use TinyMCE as editor on a website. Problem is, when I insert images from the same site, TinyMCE will use relative url to the image instead of the fixed url I entered when including the image.

The resulting html is used elsewhere, for example in emails. Problem is, relative urls will not show up properly anywhere but in the original location.

How do I get TinyMCE to use full absolute urls instead of shortened relative ones?

Make sure in the javascript initialization you are using, that you have these lines in it:

relative_urls : false,
remove_script_host : false,
convert_urls : true,

As it was previously pointed out, this the correct way:

relative_urls : false,
remove_script_host : false,
convert_urls : true,

HOWEVER, there is one thing to mention that will make you wonder why it's not working even though you have specified the proper text above. Ensure the false and true do NOT have quotes around them.

The following is incorrect:

relative_urls : "false",

You can only add convert_urls : false

Here's the documentation http://archive.tinymce.com/wiki.php/Configuration:convert_urls

Try setting the config parameter relative_urls to false and see if that helps:
