URL Mapping in ASP.Net

Hello Everybody,

Yesterday one of my colleague was very much confused in URL mapping, he wanted to show a meaningful url without any extension. He was trying to do some extra things and very much inconvenience method. I suggest him a very simple and useful technique from net.

Here is how it works:

<div>

    <asp:Menu ID="menuTop" runat="server" Orientation="Horizontal" Width="400px">

    <Items>

    <asp:MenuItem Text="Login" ToolTip="Login" NavigateUrl="~/Login"></asp:MenuItem>

    <asp:MenuItem Text="Result" ToolTip="Login" NavigateUrl="~/Result"></asp:MenuItem>

    <asp:MenuItem Text="Advertise" ToolTip="Advertise" NavigateUrl="~/Advertise"></asp:MenuItem>

    </Items>

    <StaticMenuItemStyle BackColor="Aqua" ForeColor="Brown"  Font-Bold="true" Height="20px" Font-Names="segoi ui" ItemSpacing="1px" />

    <StaticHoverStyle BackColor="BurlyWood" />

    </asp:Menu>

    </div>

Web.Config Settings:

Write the below code inside

<urlMappings>

      <add url="~/Login" mappedUrl="Login.aspx"/>

      <add url="~/Result" mappedUrl="SearchResult.aspx"/>

      <add url="~/Result" mappedUrl="SearchResult.aspx"/>

      <add url="~/Advertise" mappedUrl="Advertise.aspx"/>

</urlMappings>

In above setting URL is your new URL with mapped path, ~ sign is mandatory and mappedURL is your old url

I hope it will help you out …

Cheers,
