Dear Gurus,
how do i hide the folder eg:pages in the website address like this :-

http://www.mysite.com/pages/mypage.html

I want a user to click on a link,calling the page:mypage.html which is located in the folder "pages" and the website address should display

http://www.mysite.com/mypage.html

instead of

http://www.mysite.com/pages/mypage.html

My question is,is there any scripts or method to hide the folders being displayed in the address bar?

ASP.Net help : datagrid

nitec — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 13:34:52 +0800

I have a datagrid:column which has the itemtemplate,edititemtemplate and footertempate.For the footer template,it loads a list from the database.I intend to create a edititemtemplate which the user is able to reselect items from the list but i want the previously selected item to be selected(highlighted) as default when editing.

This is the code for the dgrdList_ItemDataBound_EditItem :-

Dim drwData As DataRowView
Dim ddlLocation As WebControls.DropDownList
Dim dtrSQL As OleDbDataReader
Dim i As Integer
Dim item As ListItem

ddlLocation = CType(e.Item.FindControl("ddlLocation_Edit"), WebControls.DropDownList)

ddlLocation.Items.Clear()
ddlLocation.Items.Add("")
For Each item In Cmn.loadlist("Location")
ddlLocation.Items.Add(item)
Next

For i = 0 To (CInt(ddlLocation.Items.Count.ToString) - 1)
If ddlLocation.Items(i).Text = drwData("LOCATION_DESC") Then //highlighted error
ddlLocation.SelectedIndex = i
End If
Next

And this is the error that i get with this code:-

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
