~ refer to which directory

[gouqizi.lvcha]

I see a src= ~/BLahBlah/foo.ascx. I wonder which directory ~ refers to?

 

[KJ]

~ is always the application root dir

It's the virtual path of the application directory

The root directory of the application. So BlahBlah would be a subdirectory
in the root.
