Hi,

I've just installed ViMbAdmin 2.2.2 and noticed that there is an issue in running ViMbAdmin on non-standard port, e.g. https://example.com:8443/mailadmin/ (and in my case non-standard alias "mailadmin").
The first page displays without loading proper css - just like plain html (I've included screenshot - after setup an administrator's account).
As you can see, there's no port "8443" on the browser's status bar.

I've done quick workaround by changing the file "library/ViMbAdmin/Controller/Action.php":

        if( isset( $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] ) )
            $view->pagebase = "http{$ssl}://{$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}" . Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getBaseUrl();

and adding "Server_PORT" to the "pagebase":

        if( isset( $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] ) )
            $view->pagebase = "http{$ssl}://{$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}:{$_SERVER['SERVER_PORT']}" . Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getBaseUrl();

But I think there should be some checks before, e.g. set the port to other variable in case we are running on non-standard port.

Hi,

That is a little specific, more generic would be to replace it with the following:

    if ( ( isset( $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] ) && ( $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] == 80 )) || ( !isset( $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] )) )
        $port = '';
    else
        $port = ':'. $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'];

    if( isset( $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] ) )
        $view->pagebase = "http{$ssl}://{$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}{$port}" . Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getBaseUrl();

This may not be the most efficient checking, but I think it catches everything, and it works for http. Just realised it needs something more for HTTPS on 443......

Isn't $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] ALWAYS there?

InRongs option just seems awfully weird.

Should be working fine in V3. At least it works for me. Let us know if there is still an issue under V3.
