Request.ApplicationPath

[Zarcom]

I would like to know where the Framework gets the value that Request.ApplicationPath returns.

I have often used it to make sure I am not hardcoding my server.Transfer and response.redirect bits.

For example I want to transfer the page to say bubba.aspx with some querystring variables

Response.Redirect(Request.ApplicationPath + "/bubba.aspx?Center=" + myCenterVariable.ToString());

The problem is that when I uploaded this to the production server application path is returning "/". So I get the page not found error and the address bar shows
"

http://bubba.aspx/?Center=stuff"

It should be showing "

http://www.mysite.com/bubba.aspx?Center=Stuff".

My development machine does work as it shows.
"

http://localhost/mysite/bubba.aspx?Center=stuff"

Not quite sure what is going on here and my brain is hurting me. Your help is appreciated.

That'l do donkey, that'l do

Have you tried:

Response.Redirect("../bubba.aspx?Center=" + myCenterVariable.ToString());

That does work but I still would like to know where the Framework gets the value that Request.ApplicationPath returns

I assume that you are working from a virtual directory in your development environment, so ApplicationPath returns localhost/virtdir. When you move the site to production you are in a "web site", not a virtual directory, so the applicationpath is "/" root.
