How to get URL of website via code

I have an asp.net listview that lists a set of images and underneath the image I want to display the full URL of the image.

So like www.testsite.com/image22.jpg

How can I contacentate

Request.Url.GetLeftPart(UriPartial.Authority) in code behind AND CONCATENATE IT TO <img src="<%#Eval("picPath") %>"

<img src="<%#Eval("picPath") %>"

Open in new window

you can use asp.net image control instead of html img and this will take care of image path mapping

<asp:Image ID="Image1" runat="server" ImageUrl='<%# "~/" +Eval("picPath") %>'/>

Hi thanks but I can display the images OK however

I need to display the full path in text

so something like

TEXT='<%# "~/" +Eval("picPath") %>'/>

guru_sami

Try this function:
protected string GetFullPath(string relativepath)
{
//string relativepath = "pic1.jpg";
string domainpath = Request.Url.Scheme + System.Uri.SchemeDelimiter + Request.Url.Host + (Request.Url.Port != 80 ? ":" + Request.Url.Port : "");
string applicationpath = Request.ApplicationPath;

string fullpath = domainpath + applicationpath + "/" + relativepath;
return fullpath;
}

Note: If your relative path already has / in front then remove "/" from full path.

thanks sami

How can add GetFullPath to markup?

So

TEXT='<%# "Eval("GetFullPath") +Eval("picPath") %>'/>
