I need to display an Image in web page. But the Image doesn't exist in the Web directory. If the image is under web directory I know that just "../Images/TN/my.jpg" will work. But the image is available in "D:\Images\TN\my.jpg" and My web site is deployed in "C:\apps\mywebsite".
How do I convert the "D:\Images\TN\my.jpg" path to a relative path so that the Image will be visible in web page?
You cant show images if they are not in a virtual directory. Try holding then in your application folder itself or if its not feasible then make your Folder holding the image as a virtual directory in the IIS and mount it in your application folder.
Here's what you need to do (way i prefer),
You will have it available for relative url in that website. like
www.example.com/GlobalImages
When you set that in IIS, it is automatically added to your Solution's Project.
Here is the MSDN link if you want..
Easiest thing to do is probably set up a handler and use the generic image name. While local, point to the D:. While on the server, point to the web path. (At least so long as you're not keeping them within the virtual directory that is).
TO fetch this point, we always write the absolute directory for images or other resource.But if the resource in the web server, i use the relative directory.
../../../foo.
