Thanks.
I have another post and it's related to this I believe you could help me with it.

Thank you. Let me check this.

That's interesting. Can you show me how to create this virtual directory?

Thank you for your response. It's really working specially if the file is located on the web folder. However what I want to do is to show a preview of a file located on a local drive. In this case the server's D: drive.

Alright, I'm creating tooltip image. I have my external javascript file to handle this. Now this script used "rel" to capture the location of the file. Alright I understand that the use of "a" tag is different. For that I'm going to use ASP:LinkButton instead. I understand if this doesn't make sense since I didn't provide the whole idea. So I'm going to ask you a different question instead. Say I have this line of code:

[exScript.js]

$("body").append("<p id='screenshot'><img src='"+ this.rel +"' alt='url preview' />"+ c +"</p>");

and in my aspx page I have this:

<asp:LinkButton runat="server" CssClass="lFilename" ID="grdlinkFilename" Text='<%#Eval("FILENAME")%>' CommandArgument='<%#Eval("FILEPATH")%>' OnCommand="grdlinkFilename_click">

Note: This control is inside of a gridview.

The "rel" on the script is from the "a" tag that I provided.

What I want to do now is to replace "this.rel" on the script with the exact path of the file (image file). I tried replacing "this.rel" with "this.CommandArgument" but it doesn't work. There is a pop up but it's only showing what ever in the "alt" element as indicated on the script (alt='url preview');

For you it may not have sense but for me it does. It's just a pigment of an asp.net application that I'm creating. What I just want to know is, how can I re-write this in asp:hyperlink. If it's still doesn't make sense then leave it as it is. Thanks.

And the code that I provided is connected to a jquery.

The one that I provided.

How can I convert the given code to <asp:hyperlink>?

Alright I got the first one. Thank you.
I'm going to work on the JavaScript side. However I'm still looking forward to your javascript version for this scenario.
I will regularly check this post. Thank you.

Let's assume that there are 3 folders inside the server's D drive.
d:/folder1
d:/folder2
d:/folder3

Inside each folders there are 2 image files.
d:/folder1/img1.1.jpg
d:/folder1/img1.2.jpg
d:/folder2/img2.1.jpg
d:/folder2/img2.2.jpg
d:/folder3/img3.1.jpg
d:/folder3/img3.3.jpg
Now a particular page will going to get all the folders on the D drive and display it using a gridview.

What i want to do is to hover the mouse on one of the image files so that it will show me an image tooltip to preview the particular image.

However I don't know how ASP:LinkButton will be able to capture the location of the particular image selected. Of course I can't do this "~/img1.1.jpg" for example since it's in the D drive.

Using DIV that you mentioned is like unfamiliar territory for me but it's an enteresting approach. Please provide me a code. I will greatly appreciate your help.

Thank you. Do you have a sample code for this? I believe this would help me.

Thank you this is helpful.
However I still have a bit of a concern.
Let's say I want to use ASP:LinkButton instead of ASP:Image. I'm having trouble with the property that i'm going to use. I don't know the right property to use and how to set the value of the property to the url/location of the image that is located on the server's D: drive. Of course the value will vary from one file location to another. I know we are almost there but I need further advice and help from you guys. Thank you.

Thanks now it's clear.
I also have one concern and I believe you could help me.
I do have a page in one of my web application that recursively get all the folders of the server's D drive and inside each folder it contains files and subfolders. Now what I want to do is to apply an image preview when I hover the mouse on it.
Please help me.

If I tell you what I'm trying to do I believe you would be able to resolve my concern.

Thank you for this. But I'm having trouble with this onmouseover, it seems that my VS 2008 can't recognized it. There's no such event there.

Is this applicable for an image? Can you show me how?

Can you tell me how to do it please. Someone suggested onmouseover but it doesn't work for me.

Thank you. I know this is complex but I want to try wpf instead. If you could provide a tutorial for the wpf app you made before I would highly appreciate it.

Thanks. I know how complex this project is but still I want to give it a try. What I want is to create it in C# .Net however I will try to look at Chromium and see what I can find there.

Thanks. However I'm fully aware of WebBrowser control. So now I want to try from scratch. Or creating a new webbrowser control not related to any IE component.

I want to create a browser for following reasons: 1.) To have a 100% customized browser that will benefit all my web applications. 2.) Learning how browser completely works. 3.) To make a secure browser for my server. I'm a web developer either personal or enterprise and now I want to extend it by creating my own web browser. And this is only for personal use and free for others who want to use it but not commercially.
