SYMPTOMS

When you specify a Web Page while calling the Page.ResolveUrl method, the ResolveUrl method does not return the relative path of the page. This problem occurs in ASP.NET version 1.1. However, this problem does not occur in ASP.NET version 1.0.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the behavior of the ResolveUrl method of the Page class has been changed in Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1 from the behavior in version 1.0.

Web Controls use the ResolveUrl method to resolve the URL. In ASP.NET version 1.1, when the RelativeUrl parameter contains an absolute URL, the ResolveUrl method returns the URL unchanged.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, use the Page.Server.MapPath property to retrieve the path of the Web page.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

2.In Design view, double-click Form1 to view the code for the Page_Load event.
3.Add the following code to the Page_Load event:

Visual Basic .NET Sample Code
Response.Write(Page.ResolveUrl("WebForm1.aspx"))
Visual C# .NET Sample Code
Response.Write(Page.ResolveUrl("WebForm1.aspx"));
4.On the Debug menu, click Start to run the project. WebForm1.aspx appears without the path.
