To get the current host with port (mysite.com, www.mysite.com or localhost:9876)
Request.Url.Authority
To get your current application folder: (/ or /appfolder/)
Url.Content("~/")
To mix them?
String.Format("{0}://{1}{2}",Request.Url.Scheme, Request.Url.Authority,Url.Content("~/"))
OR (As torm pointed out)
Url.Action("", null, null, Request.Url.Scheme)
Url.Action("", null, null, "http")
Url.Action("", null, null, "https")
To generate an Action URL:
Url.Action("About","Home",null,"http")
Easiest way I know to get AbsoluteUri would be
@Url.Action("", null, null, "http")
@Url.Content()
returns the root RELATIVE path, that is the path from the root of the domain.
So if your site was at www.foo.com/site then Url.Content() returns /site
Ishmael's response is correct. You will need to parse a full url.
The @Url.Content is returning the relative URL which is correct. The following code gives you various option in getting a URL realtive via code, absolute Url via code, absolute via javascript:
<div>Site 'Relative Url = '@Url.Content("~")'</div>
<div>Site 'Absolute Url = '@System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.AbsoluteUri'</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
alert("site URL via js = " + location.href);
</script>
You will get something like:
Site 'Relative Url = '/' Site 'Absolute Url = 'http://localhost:14763/'
and also the JS alert showing the href/absolute Url
For the full URL, use @Request.Url.ToString()
.
You can either parse that, or use one of the other methods on the HttpRequest.Url
property, which is a System.Uri
object.
