HttpVDir Element

  • Article

The HttpVDir element returns the root directory of the current subweb. For example, for http://myserver/myweb/home.htm, the HttpVDir element would return http://myserver/myweb/.

Syntax

<HttpVDir
  URLEncodeAsURL = "TRUE" | "FALSE">
</HttpVDir>

Attributes

Name Description
URLEncodeAsURL Optional Boolean. TRUE if special characters, such as spaces, are converted to quoted Unicode format (e.g. %u0020) in a path component of a URL.
Parent Elements
Case, Default, ListFormBody, ListFormButtons, RenderPattern, RowLimitExceeded, ScriptQuote, Then, Toolbar, ViewBody, ViewEmpty, ViewFooter

Remarks

Adding <ows:HttpVDir/> to a page would return something like http://myserver/myweb/.

Example

This example, a selection from STDVIEW.XML, uses the HttpVDir element to insert the root directory in an <IMG> tag for a view footer.

<ViewFooter>
  <HTML>
    <![CDATA[ <tr><td height="5"><img src=" ]]>
  </HTML>
  <HttpVDir />
  <HTML>
    <![CDATA[ /_layouts/images/blank.gif" width="1"
      height="5"></td></tr></table> ]]>
  </HTML>
</ViewFooter>
