what should it be to include the BaseURL in some text in the CMS like on a literal field

$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Main", new LiteralField (
"literalfield",
"<p>Download Example Banner <a href=\"/".Director::absoluteBaseURL()."/BannerModule/images/examples/770x314.zip\" target=\"_blank\" >Example Banner Image 770 x 314px [zip]</a></p>"
));
