Html-webpack-plugin: historyApiFallback + generated script/link tags

[luisrudge]

Currently, the plugin generates this:

<script src="app.js?6be84a4f96612dd43e8d"></script>

But, when using webpack-dev-server + historyApiFallback and html5 routing (react-router, for example), it fails to fetch the correct file.

Example:

• navigate to localhost/users/123
• save a file
• webpack reloads the page
• ERROR: 404 not found: http://localhost/users/app.js?[hash]

Maybe we should add an option to add the root slash or something

wouldn't solve setting a publicPath your issue?

[luisrudge]

set publicPath to what?

[luisrudge]

oh, ok. setting publicPath worked indeed. Thanks!

  output: {
    publicPath: '/',
  }

Would it make sense to include this hint somewhere in the docs? :)
