METHOD: Server.MapPath
Server.
MapPath
(Path)
The
MapPath
method maps a relative or virtual path to a physical path. This method does not check for the validity or the existence of the physical path. If the path starts with a forward or backward slash, the method returns the path as if the path is a full virtual path. If the path does not start with a slash, then the method returns the path relative to the directory of the ASP file being processed.
There is one mandatory argument.
Path
The
Path
argument is the path to be mapped.
Code:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

Server.MapPath
("test.asp")
%>

Server.MapPath
("\test.asp")
%>
The path of the file2 is <% Response.Write
Server.MapPath
("test\test.asp")
%>
The path of the file3 is <% Response.Write
Server.MapPath
("\")

The path of the file1 is D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test.asp
The path of the file2 is D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\test.asp
