I am quite new to ASP.Net. I have a Master.aspx and a Page1.aspx and Page2.aspx, all in the same directory.

Master:

<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="Page1.aspx" runat="server" Text="Page 1" />
<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="Page2.aspx" runat="server" Text="Page 2" />

both the Page1 and Page2 gets rendered from above master page.

all three are in a vertual directory which is mapped as a subdomain here are the details:

Virtual Drectory: dirvir Domain: dirvir.example.com

now when I open any of the page say:

http://dirvir.example.com/Page1.aspx

the Hyperlinks are rendered containing

href="../virdir/Page1.aspx"
href="../virdir/Page2.aspx"

respectively.

On click of them it takes me to 

http://dirvir.example.com/dirvir/Page1.aspx
http://dirvir.example.com/dirvir/Page2.aspx

where as I wanted it to be 

http://dirvir.example.com/Page1.aspx
http://dirvir.example.com/Page2.aspx

I can achive the same by using <a> but i need them on the code behind too so thats not desired.

Note: using <a> with runat server also behaves in the same way HyperLink does.

Can you try this as indicated below change the NavigateUrl,

<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="~/Page1.aspx" runat="server" Text="Page 1" />
<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="~/Page2.aspx" runat="server" Text="Page 2" />

Or 

<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="/Page1.aspx" runat="server" Text="Page 1" />
<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="/Page2.aspx" runat="server" Text="Page 2" />

  • it works only when the pages and master page are directly in the virtual directory, but what if they are in a folder in that virtual directory the link tries to get it from virual directory e.g. `http://dirvir.example.com/testdir/Page1.aspx` will be having urls containing `http://dirvir.example.com/Page1.aspx` – Anant Anand Gupta Nov 17 '10 at 08:49
  • did you surely tried the second suggesion , this surely should work i just tested this with child virtual directories setup – DSharper Nov 17 '10 at 18:13

In Visual Studio click on the Project Name in the Solution Explorer. Once you do this, you will find a property under the properties window called Virtual Path, which will have the value /dirvir. Change this to /

If you don't need it to be a server-side link, just use a regular anchor tag and let ASP.NET figure out the correct path based on your virtual directory for your web application:

<a href="<%: ResolveURL("~/Page1.aspx")%>">Page 1</a>
