Hi,



We have a couple of pages on the site that need to be secure. Is there any

way to get (redirect, etc) to these pages without using an absolute path?



Alternately, the whole reason for doing this is because the certificate was

issued to mydomain.com. This causes a problem with the browser because it

sees www.mydomain.com and says there is a mismatch. Anyone know of a way

around this? (Other than getting a new certificate.)



Thanks



Jerry

http and the logic is sound and should work for you too. If you use the

runat="server" on a control and use the tilde (~) to prefix your URL, you

should get the web app's context for free. You have to have the control be

run at server otherwise you won't get the .NET framework recognizing it

needs to change the tilde for the context path.



HTH.

1) no you need an absolute path becuase you need to specify the protocol.

2) you need a new certificate. the whole point of a certificate is it

guarantees the domain name is correct.
