Selenium driver.getPageSource() ,change links to absolute

Question

I am trying to get page source in selenium using

String ps = driver.getPageSource();

but links inside page source are relative,like

<img src="images/cgglogogogo.png">

Because of this I cannot use this source code as images/css are not displaying,I want to use this source code to render a pdf. Please help

by "incomplete" you mean the link paths are relative? how do you intend to use the page source to render a PDF? — Eliran Malka, Apr 24 '16 at 15:39
@EliranMalka Yeah paths are relative and I want to convert it into absolute path — Fawaz Ahmed, Apr 24 '16 at 15:41
@EliranMalka I will either use PhantomJs or wkhtmltopdf(java wrapper class) to render it into pdf — Fawaz Ahmed, Apr 24 '16 at 15:43
you'd have to process the page source, look into `driver.getCurrentUrl()` to get the base URL (than you can concat it with the relative URLs on the page). — Eliran Malka, Apr 24 '16 at 15:49
@EliranMalka Ok that's great,but there will paths like `../..images/cgg.png`,how to deal with those — Fawaz Ahmed, Apr 24 '16 at 15:55

import java.net.URL;
URL baseUrl = new URL("http:www.example.com/someFolder/");
URL url = new URL( baseUrl , "../..images/cgg.png");

This worked for me!
