Hi, When progammatically setting the navigateURL property in code behind, the
URL is always rendered as relative i.e it's appended to the applications root
URL. If I use the same string and hard code it the URL is rendered correctly
as absolute.

Can anyone tell me how to set an abolute URL in code behind. I'm using
ASP.NET 2.0/VB/VS 2005. The URL I'm passing is "http://www.mywebsite.com/"
etc.

Appreciate any help - faster the better. More info if required. Regards Carl
Grainger

Sorted after some trial and error: I was using stringbuilder.append and then
toString to build the navigateURL. I was then using server.URLencodie to
remove spaces in one of the querystrings etc. I didn't know that the
stringbuilder was already doing this step for me. By using both the
navigateURL was appended to the application root. Hope this helps someone
else.
