Re: User Control not displaying background3/16/2004 2:42:09 AM

0/0

Hi,
i have created a web user control which contains 2 tables and 5 imagebuttons.
i have specificied the file location of the images in this format : "..\blablabla.blablabla.gif"
however, my pages are in a different folder from my user controls
Web forms : main\group1 folder
User controls : main folder

when my webforms are in my main folder loads the user controls, i can see everything.
but after i shifted then to main\group1 folder, and changed the html tag's src, im unable to see the table's background gif file.
on further debugging, i found that the tables no longer have a background field in it's properties panel.
but the html codes still maintain the background property.

i did somemore testing, and i found that my webform in the same folder as my usercontrols have no problems viewing the background of the table, but once they are in different folders, only the image buttons show up.

is there any explainations on why the table properties suddenly change?
and is there any solutions?
Theres always a better way of doing things,
Cheers,

The path (to the image) that you specify is used by the browser (not ASP.NET) to request that image. As it is the Page that sends the information to the browser, all relative addresses are from the directory of the Page (how would the browser know that part of the Page was in one directory, on the server, and another part of the Page in a different directory!?!). That is why I always recommend that your paths should be relative to the root directory (by using a forward slash at the beginning of the path, e.g. /images/xxx.gif).

Hi,
i have tried out what you said, however, now i cant even see the background during run time.
i can see the background now because the code : ".\images\abc.gif" will bring me back to 1 folder level, and therefore links directly to my images folder.
but due to the 3 different levels of folder forms in my project, i need to dymanically create the location string.
the current method im using is to stored a integer in a session object in every page, which denotes what folder level the current page it at.
but as the table, being a html control, not having a 'background' property, im unable to do it for the background.
is there any way to do that?

btw im also looking for a shorter way to dymanic 'tell' my webcontrol what folder level im at.=
Theres always a better way of doing things,
Cheers,

The example that I provided previously only works if the images folder is in the root web folder. If this didn't work then your images folder must be in another subfolder. If you include this subfolder in the path (e.g. /subfolder/images/xxx.gif) then the background will be displayed.

It would make it easier, for us to provide a solution, if you included the directory structure from the root web folder. For example:
    wwwroot/


        webapp1/


            images/


        webapp2/


            images/


        ...

:: The example that I provided previously only works if the images folder is in the root web folder.

One more critera: the base folder must be pointed out by a domain. For example, the following URL will work:

http://somesite.com/

However, it will not work for virtual directories:

http://somesite.com/somevirtualdir/

Hi,
err... im kind of confused...
i currently have a directory structure as follows :

main/
module1/
module2/
usercontrols/
images/

i think the problem is, because of my default.aspx is in the main folder, that's the only page that gives me the image not found problem.
is it possible to have a default.aspx inside a folder?
meaning there are no webforms in the main folder.
Theres always a better way of doing things,
Cheers,
