virtual web site

[Mike]

I have a web site that is configured as a virtual under IIS, in the folders
i also have sub folders that I need to search in from my web page. How can i
search the folders under the virtural web site directory without fully
defining the path?

its setup such as this;
c:\autoFinder
under this i have
c:\autoFnder\Cars
c:\autoFinder\Trucks

I need to perform a search under cars or trucks from my asp.net web page,
how can i do that without have c:\autoFinder\Cars, since the folder will not
be on teh C:\ drive on the web server?

You can use the virtual path with the '~' shortcut...and use Server.MapPath
to get the absolute path to the virtual path..

Dim absolutePath As String = Server.MapPath("~/Cars")

I believe the '~' tilde works with Server.MapPath...can't remember...it
should..

HTH...

You'll need to use the IHTTPModule or IHTTPhandler to do something like
that.
