Control.ResolveUrl Method
Assembly: System.Web (in system.web.dll)
public String ResolveUrl ( String relativeUrl )
public function ResolveUrl ( relativeUrl : String ) : String
Not applicable.
Parameters
- relativeUrl
The URL associated with the TemplateSourceDirectory property.
Return Value
The converted URL.If the relativeUrl parameter contains an absolute URL, the URL is returned unchanged. If the relativeUrl parameter contains a relative URL, that URL is changed to a relative URL that is correct for the current request path, so that the browser can resolve the URL.
For example, consider the following scenario:
-
A client has requested an ASP.NET page that contains a user control that has an image associated with it.
-
The ASP.NET page is located at /Store/page1.aspx.
-
The user control is located at /Store/UserControls/UC1.ascx.
-
The image file is located at /UserControls/Images/Image1.jpg.
If the user control passes the relative path to the image (that is, /Store/UserControls/Images/Image1.jpg) to the ResolveUrl method, the method will return the value /Images/Image1.jpg.
This method uses the TemplateSourceDirectory property to resolve to the absolute URL. The returned URL is for client use.

For mobile Web pages only, if your application relies on cookieless sessions or might receive requests from mobile browsers that require cookieless sessions, using a tilde ("~") in a path can result in inadvertently creating a new session and potentially losing session data. To set a property with a path such as "~/path", resolve the path by calling the ResolveUrl with an argument such as "~/path" before assigning it to the property. |
The following example creates an Image Web server control object and uses the ResolveUrl method to set the path to the image, which is stored by the ImageUrl property.
public class MyResolveUrl extends Control
{
private String _ImageUrl;
/** @property
*/
public String get_ImageUrl()
{
return _ImageUrl;
} //get_ImageUrl
/** @property
*/
public void set_ImageUrl(String value)
{
_ImageUrl = value;
} //set_ImageUrl
protected void Render(HtmlTextWriter output)
{
Image myImage = new Image();
// Resolve Url.
myImage.set_ImageUrl(ResolveUrl(this.get_ImageUrl()));
myImage.RenderControl(output);
} //Render
} //MyResolveUrl
