Local Dir

[Ryan Moore]

How can I get the path of the virtual directory which an ASP.NET app is
running?

For example, on a page running at
http://localhost/myapp/someFolder/default.aspx, I want to extract JUST the
http://localhost/myapp/

what combination of Page.Requests does this?

thnx

Hey,

Request.ApplicationPath will get you the virtual directory for the app.
Server.MapPath will get you the physical path

Response.Write(Request.ApplicationPath);
will return
/CodePlay
which is the actual virtual dir for my web app.
and
Response.Write(Server.MapPath(Request.ApplicationP ath));
will return
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\CodePlay
which is also correct physical path on hdd

how bout
Response.Write(Request.Url.Scheme + "://" + Request.Url.Host +
Request.ApplicationPath);

That should sort you out....
