Question

in my code when i set

   link.NavigateUrl = Common.grdTextCell(gridDataItem["URL"].Text); 

For the hyperlink in the rad grid.

when i click it it redirect to the application domainName+url rathere than only URL.

How to deattach the Domain and redirect it to the actual navigation url.

http://SomeDomainName/Controls/www.yahoo.com

Answer 1

Make sure gridDataItem["URL"] starts with http:// (or https:// depending)

If the URL to navigate to does not start with a protocol (I.e. http:// or https://) the browser will assume the link is part of the current domain.

I would have something like the following…

string url = gridDataItem["URL"].Text;
if(!url.StartsWith("http://"))
   url = "http://" + url;
link.NavigateUrl = Common.grdTextCell(url); 

You obviously need to modify the above should you need to use https:// instead.
