Question

I need to be able to set up links in my webpages dynamically in ASP .Net Webforms. I know that you can set up routes dynamically in ASP .Net.

I want to generate Urls too from the RouteCollection in a similar way to the UrlHelper in ASP .Net MVC. So far I couldn’t find anything that says if you can use the UrlHelper from ASP .Net MVC with Webforms.

You might be interested in the FriendlyUrls Nuget package which Scott Hanselman recently blogged about, and introduced in this blog post.

Code example:

<a href='<%# FriendlyUrl.Href("~/WebForms/Edit", Item.TouristAttractionId ) %>'>Edit</a>
