I can't figure this out...I've tried seemingly every comination.  Just trying to load up an XML file using jQuery.  Here is what my code looks like(simplified to isolate the issue):

$.get("MyXMLFile.xmll", {}, function(xml) {
       //Do Stuff
    });

 

The issue is the "MyXMLFile.xml".  When I reference it using the entire url it obviously works...but that won't do for distribution.  I've tried all sorts of combinations of "DesktopModules/ModuleName/MyXMLFile.xml", using "~/"s, etc, etc...

Does anyone know offhand the proper form for referencing this?

Your proper form, if not in a virtual directory would be

/PathWithinDNN

So if your file was inside the desktop modules folder and in the ModuleName folder, it would be

/DesktopModules/ModuleName/MyXMLFile.xml
