Property Value
Type:
System..::.UriA value that represents the URI of the current content or the content that is being navigated to.
Dependency property identifier field: SourceProperty
When you set the Source property to a value that is different from the content being displayed, the frame navigates to the new content.
The following example shows the XAML for a frame that includes URI mapping definitions. The frame will navigate to the value of its Source property, which in this example is set by default to /Home.
<navigation:Frame
x:Name="ContentFrame"
Style="{StaticResource ContentFrameStyle}"
Source="/Home"
Navigated="ContentFrame_Navigated"
NavigationFailed="ContentFrame_NavigationFailed">
<navigation:Frame.UriMapper>

<uriMapper:UriMapping
Uri="/Reports/{type}/{selection}"
MappedUri="/Views/ReportsPage.xaml?type={type}&selection={selection}"/>
