- Introduced get_uri function which retrieves the URL parts from the clean url. This works across all server configurations and also helps build relative URLs support

- Improvised methodology to check if homepage
- Introduced the $base_url variable which holds the base URL of the daux. Can be used in index.php to make URLs relative
