Can't redirect off domain?

I noticed as I attempt to link an Obsolete URL of "badurl" to "
http://google.com", the following redirect occurs:
http://<mydomain>/http://google.com
..and a 404 is to be had. Can't the "New Site" URL be some URL NOT part of your domain name? That's a serious issue for us given the multiple domain names we have.

Hi, Phoca SEF only works with one domain like one Joomla! site - it is Joomla! component ready for only one Joomla! instance.
To redirect sites between different domains, I think some specific code outside Joomla! needs to be created

I'm sorry, but that isn't correct. You merely need to modify the Phoca code and replace the conditional statements that prepend the domain to the parsed URL. It's not a "Joomla Limitation", it's just short sighted coding. I've "fixed" this short sightedness in my site by actually allowing off-domain URLs.

Hi, then will be great if you can paste a code (you have improved) here.
Thank you, Jan
