Trouble setting up ASP.Net application

Jason Moore

I am trying to set up a web application so that I can use the root relative
paths, but if I set the site up at http://localhost VS.Net only gives me the
option to user absolute paths (relative, root relative, and document relative
are not selectable) and if I set it up in a virtual directory
http://localhost/philotech then root relative paths do not work unless they
are preceeded by /philotech.

How do I fix this? Is this an issue with IIS or VS.Net?

Thank You
Jason

Check your IIS settings & see if "enable parent paths" is enabled. If not,
enable it.

It already is enabled. This problem is driving me insane... There is no way
that this is how it is supposed to function... Maybe I should turn off parent
paths?
