I am using asp.net. I am not storing image in sql server.I storeall the image in one folder. I want to access image from thatfolder to my client machine. Images folder (\Data_Image) storein the same place into the application root (server machine)like c:\inetpub\wwwroot\mywebapp\Data_Image. I am using repetercontrol for show images. I already use server.Mappath but stillwhen I run my application on client machine it still look forthe image on client machine itself.

I hate to tell you this, but your application root is not
"c:\inetpub\wwwroot\mywebapp\Data_Image". Your application is a web
application that resides in virtual directories. A URL points to a virtual
directory on the server, not a file location. If you use a file location,
that's what you're going to get. Take a look at the URL for your page. Do
you see any "C:" in there? A browser can display either local (to the local
file system) or remote (virtual directory via HTTP URL) files. How does the
browser know when they are local to the file system? When the URL is a file
path.

When building cars, it's best to know something about how the road works.
