[TYPO3-dev] Base ( absolute ) URL

[Alex Masidlover]

Hi,

I'm currently developing an extension that connects to a payment  
engine, the payment engine requires a return URL. I can't work out how  
to get the base URL (i.e.  
http://www.myserver.org/path/to/typo3/install/) so that I can then add  
the pi_getPageLink to the end of it. We don't use RealURL - and I  
think it would be overkill to add it just to get the full path.

I'm also interested to know whether there is a way of geting to the  
home page of the site (although presumabley in 'standard' mode I can  
just add index.php to the base URL).

Thanks in advance for any help,

Alex Masidlover
