Re: Relative url returned in hyperlink field

Is it because you don't have a protocol prefix? Seems like the browser doesn't figure out it's a domain.

What if you try something like this:

DataNavigateUrlFormatString="http://{0}";

Hi

In a bound grid view I have the following hyperlink field;

<asp:HyperLinkField
DataNavigateUrlFields="FldDirections"
DataNavigateUrlFormatString="{0}"
HeaderText="Directions"
Target="_blank"
Text="Directions">
<HeaderStyle ForeColor="White" />
</asp:HyperLinkField>

FldDirections is coming from the underlying source and provides a url such as www.mydomain.com. Problem is clicking on this hyperlink brings the url relative to were the site is running ie something like http://localhost/Folder1/Folder2/www.mydomain.com. How can I just get the value retuned by FldDirections i.e. www.mydomain.com?

Thanks

Regards
