Question

I can do this within code to load a bitmapimage located on the Server under ClientBin\Images folder:

var image = new BitmapImage(new Uri(Application.Current.Host.Source, "./Images/Default.JPG"));

However how do I do this within XAML itself? Is it even possible?

<Image x:Name="NewImage" Source="../Images/Default.JPG"/>

Many Thanks,

Did you try this:-

<Image x:Name="NewImage" Source="/Images/Default.JPG"/>

Urls in Xaml treat the folder from which the Xap is downloaded (ClientBin usually) as the root, i.e. the path “/” points actually at ClientBin.
