Goal

When using relative path, where does it pick up hostname and port to generate full URL in WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT call?
 

Sample:

In this example, the URL being generated is:

   http://hostname:<PORT>/test/forms/TEST_WEB/forms/exec/mydoc.pdf

Where does it pick up this hostname and port <PORT>?  How can you change it without hard coding the hostname and port number in the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT call?
