html relative/absolute link question

Reply Quote

I am writing a C#/ASP.NET application:
I want to allow a user to edit an html message and insert images. Pretty simple, right? I want to allow the user to upload the image to a directory that I specify via the C# program. I assume that I need to allow the user to upload the image to a "relative" link?

By the time they save the html, I want the link for the image to point to the absolute url for the website.

How can I do this?

sbranigan,

Please set URLType property to Absolute.

Demo:

http://cutesoft.net/example/Relative-or-Absolute-URLs.aspx

URLType Enumeration

Specify whether the URL should be converted to a site root relative path (/html/images/image1.gif) or an absolute path (http://www.mysite.com/images/image1.gif).

Members

Member Name	Description
Default	The URL is not converted.
SiteRelative	The URL is converted into a site root relative path. A site root relative path describes the location of the destination file by describing the route the browser must take from the Web site's root folder (top level in the folder structure). For example, a site root-relative path to an image may appear as: /html/images/image1.gif
Absolute	The URL is converted into an absolute path. An absolute path describes the physical location of a file on a machine or the exact location of a file on the Internet. An absolute path on your hard drive might appear as: An absolute path might appear as: http://www.mysite.com/images/image1.gif

Adam,

Thanks for the reply. Sorry, but I have one more question.

How to I set the url to "prepend" to the image? For example, I want to replace http://www.mysite.com with a different site.

Is the codebehind available for this example? Do i need that? Because, I have looked through the example, and it looks like what I want to do. I just don't see how to set the url enum type or the base href

Please use the following propery:

Sets or retrieves the baseline URL on which relative links will be based.
