Relative paths on Application Error page

[MattC]

I have the following in the Page_Error method of my base class for my aspx
pages.

public void Page_Error(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Server.Transfer(Request.ApplicationPath + "/Error.aspx");
}

This works fine, however Error.aspx has some images on it that are document
relative, but if a page causes an error that is not in the same path as
Error.aspx then the image urls are wrong as the Server Context takes the
path from the location of the path that threw the error. I cant make the
urls root relative as this still wont work as the path moves and I also cant
have the full path as when deployed the root virtual directory may have a
different name.

I was trying to do something like this:

<LINK href='<%#AppPath("styles/style.css")%>' type="text/css"
rel="stylesheet" >

protected string AppPath(string file)
{
return Request.ApplicationPath + "/" + file;
}

but the output is:
<LINK href="" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" >

Can you not make the src have an absolute path instead?
