I am trying to get my small image url in <link id="ImageLink" rel="image_src" href="" /> in my header on my product page. So far I was successfuly in getting the Small Image URL in, but it adds the path to my style directory before it: Code:
<link id="ctl00_ImageLink" rel="image_src" href="../BVModules/Themes/TekGearReduxII/images/Products/Autoclaves/Graham-Field-8375.jpg" />
It should look like this: Code:
<link id="ctl00_ImageLink" rel="image_src" href="/Products/Autoclaves/Graham-Field-8375.jpg" />
This is from my BaseStorePage.vb Code:
Public Property ImageLink() As String
Get
Dim m As HtmlControls.HtmlLink = Page.Header.FindControl("ImageLink")
If m IsNot Nothing Then
Return m.href
Else
Return String.Empty
End If
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
Dim m As HtmlControls.HtmlLink = Page.Header.FindControl("ImageLink")
If m IsNot Nothing Then
m.href = value
End If
End Set
End Property

Bryan,
I believe the problem is the automatic pathing that .NET does when there is a runat="server" on the <head> tag. What you will probably need to do is pass a fully qualified URL to the property rather than a relative or absolute one.
Just curious, what are you trying to achieve with <link> element? |

ya know... I've noticed a lot of retail websites starting to provide "social bookmarking" links on their product pages to be posted to sites like facebook.com and digg.com. Facebook uses information from the meta tags and link tags in the header so it knows what the product name, product description and product image. It pulls the info automatically so the person "bookmarking" the product doesnt have to re-type anything.
Its just another way to share products with people.

Oh, cool! I always wondered how they did that but never bothered to look into it. I figured it was done with RSS. Thanks! |

Try this. You may have to mess with it a little bit, but you get the idea. Code:
Public Property ImageLink() As String
Get
Dim m As HtmlControls.HtmlLink = Page.Header.FindControl("ImageLink")
If m IsNot Nothing Then
[b]Return WebAppSettings.SiteStandardRoot & m.href[/b]
Else
Return String.Empty
End If
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
Dim m As HtmlControls.HtmlLink = Page.Header.FindControl("ImageLink")
If m IsNot Nothing Then
m.href = value
End If
End Set
End Property
