master pages and image URL

N

Nalaka

Hi,
When an image is put on a master page... the url to th eimage is set relatve
to the master page.
(at least don't know how top set an absolute URL to image)

But the when a content page is shown, all images (inclding masterpage) are
resoved relative to the content page location.

get get around this I copy all master page images to the sub folders
too......

this happens with the .ascx (user controls) too....

is there another soulution to setting up these image urls so that I dont
have to duplicate it.


thanks in advance.

Thanks for Teemu's good suggestion.

Hi Nalaka,

As Teemu has mentioned , the "~/...." path point to the ASP.NET's
application root. So if you're using asp.net server control , we can always
use this style path since it is easy to locate resource.... And for some
cases that we will embeded static html element that'll point to some
resources, we may need to use static path , such as /.../..... which
start from website root (not web app root...) or just reletive path.....

In addition, we can also programmatically embeded asp.net applicaiton root
path in html like:

<img src='<%= ResolveUrl("~/Images/titlebar.gif") %>' />

Hope also helps.
