Could someone point me in the right direction as to how to access the portal's URL programmatically?  What's the method or property I need to use?

Thank you!

Jose, when you say access the portal, what do you mean? Browse to it? Load the settings for it?

Hi Chris,

I'm trying to construct a link for a TabId and I don't think I'm leveraging from the framework's correct way to access it.  What I currently have is:

lnkCtl.NavigateUrl = "http://" + Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_HOST"] + "/LinkClick.aspx?link=" + DataBinder.Eval(e.Item.DataItem, "LinkUrl").ToString() + "&tabid=" + this.TabId.ToString() + "&mid=" + this.ModuleId.ToString();

I was looking for the correct way to call the host part of the URL.

If I'm totally off on my approach could you shed some light?

Best regards,

Jose Lopez

If you're just trying to get a link to a tabid, try

DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.NavigateURL(TabId)

where TabId is your ID, that will load the URl for a specific page using  DNN's friendly url builder.

Is that where you were trying to get to ultimately?

Chris,

Thank you so much.  The simplest things are sometimes the hardest to find (or did I just make it hard to find :o)

Best regards,

Jose Lopez
