a href is not working for dynamic url in mpdf - php

Question

I am getting problem in anchor tag while export to PDF.Anchor tag is working for static url like http:google.com but it is not working for dynamic url.I am using mpdf module for PDF.
$url = $fullBaseUrl.'/designers/attachment/time/'.$value['filetime'].'/uploadTab/imgattach';
// http://localhost/msme_latest/designers/attachment/time/1394432246/uploadTab/imgattach
$html= ''.$value['filename'].'';
// echo $html; die;
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html);
$mpdf->Output();
exit;
When i echo my code $html it is giving my link properly.But when i export this code in PDF it is not giving any kind of link PDF.
Any help will be appriciated.

For solve this problem you have to make just i change in mpdf.php
Actual Code is in mpdf.php on line no.20146
if(isset($vetor[1]) and $vetor[1] != '') //LINK
{
if (strpos($vetor[1],".") === false && strpos($vetor[1],"#") !== 0) //assuming every external link has a dot indicating extension (e.g: .html .txt .zip www.somewhere.com etc.)
{
//Repeated reference to same anchor?
/*
while(array_key_exists($vetor[1],$this->internallink)) $vetor[1]="#".$vetor[1];
$this->internallink[$vetor[1]] = $this->AddLink();
$vetor[1] = $this->internallink[$vetor[1]];
*/
}
$this->HREF = $vetor[1]; // HREF link style set here ******
}
and you have just comment line of code (line number:20151 to 20153)
/*
while(array_key_exists($vetor[1],$this->internallink)) $vetor[1]="#".$vetor[1];
$this->internallink[$vetor[1]] = $this->AddLink();
$vetor[1] = $this->internallink[$vetor[1]];
*/
and your pdf will accept all link include "localhost" and other external links.

use Ip address instead of localhost or use Live server url it is working for me
<?php
$fullBaseUrl = "http://127.0.0.1/meme_latest";
$url = $fullBaseUrl.'/designers/attachment/time/'.$value['filetime'].'/uploadTab/imgattach';
//(http://localhost/msme_latest/designers/attachment/time/1394432246/uploadTab/imgattach)
$html= 'Test link';
//echo $html; die;
include("../mpdf.php");
$mpdf=new mPDF();
$mpdf->WriteHTML($html);
$mpdf->Output();
exit;
?>
