Application relative paths

[garann]

Hi,

I've pulled down an existing application from Visual Source Safe and I think I've correctly identified it as an application in IIS. However, none of its application relative paths are working - they're all still relative to the wwwroot directory. Can anyone suggest a solution?

TIA!

Maybe I can explain better. If I have a file at

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\myApp\img\myGif.gif

and I refer to it as

\img\myGif.gif

, I'm getting

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\img\myGif.gif

even though myApp is defined as a virtual directory and an application.

Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? Is this not possible in 2003 Server?

garann,

try using ~ .

~ represents the current application path.

if your application is named myApp, then in that application, ~ would mean /myApp

~/img/logo.jpg would resolve to /myApp/img/logo.jpg

HTH,

Mark
