analog of .NET Request.Applica tionPath

Hi, All!

For example if I have
http://server/myvirtualpath/someotherpath/page.asp

and virtual path on the IIS is http://server/myvirtualpath

How can I retrieve above mentioned asp application path. I need the same
functionality that has ASP.NET (Request.Applic ationPath)

TIA

Use Server.MapPath

Server.MapPath - it maps relative or virtual path to the physical path.
I need something else, I want to obtain virtual root path, like /myapp

In asp.net Request.Applica tionPath - gives the application's virtual
application root path on the server. This is the kind of functionality I
need in the asp

By using "/myapp" you have confused the issue. "myapp" appears nowhere in
the example you originally provided.

I was under the impression that ApplicationPath was equivalent to physical
path. It seems I was mistaken. Given the virtual paths you descibed
originally what do you wish to retrieve?

http://server/virtualpath ?
/virtualpath ?

I just looked it up: "Gets the ASP.NET application's virtual application
root path on the server."

So it appears you wish to obtain /virtualpath, correct?

There is nothing builtin for this. You will need to parse one of the
following servervariables :

APPL_MD_PATH
PATH_INFO
SCRIPT_NAME
URL

AFAIK this is new in ASP.NET.

In ASP you don't have this information readily available. IMO you could wrap
this in a function that :
- calls Server.RequestV ariables("APPL_ PHYSICAL_PATH")
- use server.MapPath( "/") to get the web site root

On Friday I'll avoid to exhaust my last neural resources but from there you
should be able to extract the virtual path (get those appl_physical_p ath
chars that exceed the MapPath("/") etc...)

Zzzzzzzz....

Yes, you're correct, I want /virtualpath

As my web app is a combination of asp and asp.net I think that asp.net part
will tell asp part what is its virtual path :8-)

imho it will be better than parsing...

I've seen this same sort of code (below) on other posts. This works fine for me on my development machine, but not when I move it to my hosted site. When I view the source from my machine, I see: src='/MyProjectFolder/Javascript/datepicker.js' On the hosted site I get: src='//Javascript/datepicker.js' and it doesn't work. Any ideas on what I can do to make the same code work both places?
