.NET Forum / ASP.NET / General / September 2007ASP.NET Image tags with local src values
I've never had to do this before... I have a web app that needs to look for image files outside the web site folders if it is run on localhost but look for the image files in sub folders of the web site if run anywhere else. And yes, there is a logical reason for this... For some reason, I can't get the local image file to be rendered in the page when going to localhost: <asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton1" runat="server" ImageUrl="file:///D:\inetpub\Submit_en-us.gif" OnClick="imgSubmit_Click" /> I know that this is the proper path as I pasted it into a test.htm file and the image file showed up properly. This seems rather odd. Anyone with insight?

But, you can set it up to get the image locally and serve it through an image handler. Something like: <img src="imageHanlder.aspx?id=1234" /> This is a fairly common activity. If you must stick with your method, you will either have to customize your own image button control or move to an HTML image control. This will avoid the url writing of the string.
