The category browser swaps the contribution list with AJAX and rewrites the address to the category's URL, which usually sits at a different directory depth. The board's own links are relative, so the browser re-resolves all of them against the new path: from a deeper category, Board index turns into customise/community/index.php on phpbb.com and the quick links, search and FAQ shift the same way. A direct load of the category regenerates the links at the right depth, which is why only the in-place navigation breaks. Resolve the document's relative links and form actions against the address it was rendered under before the first rewrite, so they keep pointing where they did when the page loaded.

Fixes #370
The fix converts the page's relative links and form actions to full URLs before the address changes, so they keep working no matter what category is loaded.
