      1) Create a new book module and save and display.
      2) Progress to the import chapter page (Administration > Import chapter).
      3) Use the attached bookimporttest.zip file as the Zip file, and leave the Type as the default Each Html file represents one chapter.
      4) Once the import processing has completed view the first of the two pages (named a.html and b.html). There is a link on each page to the other page. Without this patch the links are broken (though the addition of 'id' in the url will correct them).

    Description

      Scenario:
      HTML file A has a relative link to HTML file B. Both files are added to a Zip. The Zip is imported into a Book and chapters are created from the HTML files. The Book module attempts to preserve the link from A to B, using the new paths created as A and B are now chapters in the book. However, there is an error in the link created as it uses 'chapter' as a parameter instead of 'chapterid'.

      Solution:

      In mod/book/tool/importhtml/locallib.php

      In function toolbook_importhtml_import_chapters

      Line 140/141

      Change

      $newcontent = str_replace($match, 'href="'.new moodle_url('/mod/book/view.php',
      array('id'=>$context->instanceid, 'chapter'=>$target->id)).'"', $newcontent);

      to

      $newcontent = str_replace($match, 'href="'.new moodle_url('/mod/book/view.php',
      array('id'=>$context->instanceid, 'chapterid'=>$target->id)).'"', $newcontent);

      Sorry, I'm just an occasional user so not used to creating patch files myself. Hope it helps!
