i noticed that when using the URL re-writter out of iis 7.0 that the root url character "~" works correctly but when I re-write the url with the global.asax file, the files no longer map correctly.
Why is this and what can I do to have all the files map properly when using global.asax to re-write urls?
If URL.Contains("/myurl/") Then
Context.RewritePath("~\myurl.aspx")
end if
When you Re-Write your URL, your style sheet path no longer correct.... Plz check this path... try to use ~ sign in path..
<link href="App_Themes/Standard/StyleSheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
Your problem is probably that the resulting page url no longer refers to a valid location.
If the user is going to http://www.yoursite.com/myurl/home.aspx and that page has a reference to a stylesheet at css/stylesheet.css, it will be wrong when the path is rewritten.
In this case, the browser will be looking for http://www.yoursite.com/myurl/css/stylesheet.css, not http://www.yoursite.com/css/stylesheet.css
If your stylesheet reference is relative, you'll need to put a stylesheet reference that refers to the location of the file from the original URL. Otherwise, you could put in a complete path to avoid any problems.
