description: Returns an absolute URL.

With multilingual configurations, use the [`absLangURL`] function instead. The URL returned by this function depends on:
- Whether the input begins with a slash
- The `baseURL` in site configuration
### Input does not begin with a slash
If the input does not begin with a slash, the resulting URL will be correct regardless of the `baseURL`.
With `baseURL = https://example.org/`
```go-html-template
{{ absURL "" }} → https://example.org/
{{ absURL "articles" }} → https://example.org/articles
{{ absURL "style.css" }} → https://example.org/style.css
```
With `baseURL = https://example.org/docs/`
```go-html-template
{{ absURL "" }} → https://example.org/docs/
{{ absURL "articles" }} → https://example.org/docs/articles
{{ absURL "style.css" }} → https://example.org/docs/style.css
```
#### Input begins with a slash
If the input begins with a slash, the resulting URL will be incorrect when the `baseURL` includes a subdirectory. With a leading slash, the function returns a URL relative to the protocol+host section of the `baseURL`.
With `baseURL = https://example.org/`
```go-html-template
{{ absURL "/" }} → https://example.org/
{{ absURL "/articles" }} → https://example.org/articles
{{ absURL "/style.css" }} → https://example.org/style.css
```
With `baseURL = https://example.org/docs/`
```go-html-template
{{ absURL "/" }} → https://example.org/
{{ absURL "/articles" }} → https://example.org/articles
{{ absURL "/style.css" }} → https://example.org/style.css
```
{{% note %}}
The last three examples are not desirable in most situations. As a best practice, never include a leading slash when using this function.
