Favicon.ico not showing in the tab in asp.net mvc project - asp.net

This is the code i call in _Layout.cshtml :
<head>
<link rel="icon" runat="server" href=#Url.Action("~/myicon.ico") type="image/ico" />
</head>
But icon don't show . I only get this default icon
favicon.ico

I think you want Url.Content, not Url.Action
<link rel="icon" runat="server" href=#Url.Content("~/myicon.ico") type="image/ico" />
Url.Content resolves the path and returns the URL. Url.Action is used when you actually want to call a controller action and do something with the result.

<c:set> just assign its value after refreshing the page

I have following variable to be used as a public variable in the application. As you can see it has the main domain of the website as its value. The issue is, once the application is loaded it does not have any value, I need to refresh the page for it to have its correct value.
<c:set var="url" scope="application"
value="http://www.example.com" />
I am using Tiles3 and this line is in baseLayout.jsp file.
Code
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="${url}/resources/mystyle.css">
At first the addresses in the source of the page that are supposed to have the URL value are as following
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="/resources/mystyle.css">
After refreshing the page the address will become as following
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="http://www.example.com/resources/mystyle.css">
in your baseLayout.jsp, use
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/style.css" />
Dont write ${url}

favicon not rendering properly from ASP.Net master page

<link href="<%=this.faviconURL %>" type="image/x-icon" rel="icon" />
It will literally print out '
<link href="%3C%25=this.faviconURL%20%25%3E" type="image/x-icon" rel="icon" />
It's as if the runtime is taking the link tag literally and refusing to do any sort of substitution. Can someone explain why this is happening? I would really prefer not using web controls for this.
I think you should add runat to link tag. So It can be processed by Asp.Net.
<link href="<%=this.faviconURL %>" runat="server" type="image/x-icon" rel="icon" />
Apperantly I was wrong see Scriptlet is not working in head tag and you can simple use without runat tag.
<link href="~/server/icofileurl" type="image/x-icon" rel="icon" />
How to add favicon.ico in ASP.NET site

Why does my inline asp.net not working within <link href>?

I want to add a version number to my js files.
<link href="css/reset.min.css?v=<%= App.Golbal.VERSION %>" media="all" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" />
This renders as
<link href="css/reset.min.css?v=<%= App.Golbal.VERSION %>" media="all" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" />
[Standard asp.net 4 web applciation]
Can anybody help?
Put it inside PlaceHolder control because link in the title not included in the form tag so no parsing will occur to it as following
<asp:PlaceHolder runat="server">
<link href="css/reset.min.css?v=<%= App.Golbal.VERSION %>" media="all" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</asp:PlaceHolder>
As Dante suggests above, maybe change
<%= App.Golbal.VERSION %>
to
<%=App.Golbal.VERSION%>
or
<%=App.Global.VERSION%>
and try that.
Alternatively, like William suggest, set id and runat=server on the link element and apply the value in the server script/code behind.
<link id="lnkCSS" runat="server" media="all" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" />
and the server script/code behind, something like
//might need HtmlLink lnkCSS = FindControls("lnkCSS")`
lnkCSS.href = "css/reset.min.css?`v=" + App.Global.VERSION;
I've had similar issues before the way to get around it is make the link an asp:hyperlink and build the link in the code behind and then assign the link to the NavigateURL of the hyperlink.
Can you try removing the white space in "<%= App.Golbal"?
Btw, Global is mispelled :)

Cannot call external javascript function from SITE.MASTER

I have a Site.Master in my ASP.NET project which defines a HEAD section as follows
<head runat="server">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title id="MasterTitle">MyApp</title>
<link rel="icon" href="Content/icon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
<link href="Content/mycss.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="Content/mycode.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
In the mycode.js file, I have a function called GetSels();
function GetSels()
{
//do stuff
}
If the GetSels function is defined in Site.Master, GetSels is callable. If it's in mycode.js, it's not.
Every code example I've seen seems to say this should work.
What am I doing wrong?
This should really work perfectly as I have done this multiple times myself.
Check that the code in your external javascript file runs correctly on page load, this is just to make sure that it is indeed being loaded correctly into your document. For example set an alert("It's loaded"); in your external .js file.
have you checked that your reference to mycode.js is correct? if your using a relative path try "~/Content/mycode.js" in your reference.

How to insert javascript in asp.net master pages [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
ASP.Net Master Page and File path issues
(10 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
We're having some trouble with including javascript in masterpages. The "~/" root shortcut doesn't seem to work, and so we're having to manually enter in the path to the javascript from where it will be used, for example: "../../tooltip.js"
However, the problem is that if the nested page is in a different path, this approach does not work as the path stays the same despite the nested page being in a different location - any solutions on how to get the path automatically working like it does for the css files?
Thanks!
The ~/ is a special entity in ASP.NET which represents the "application root". The translation only happens when you pass that URL through an ASP.NET server control, such as <asp:Image runat="server" ImageUrl="~/path..." />. Trying to use it in something that is passed as literal text directly to the client, such as ` will be rendered exactly that in the browser.
There are a few solutions to this:
Put your scripts in a predictable place relative to the domain root, such as domain.com/scripts/script.js, and you can refer to it as /scripts/script.js. The preceding / tells the client (browser) it is an absolute path from the domain root.
Use Page.ResolveClientUrl to render the correct path (<%=Page.ResolveClientUrl("~/script./js")%>)
Create your own server control which handles the ~/ resolution.
Embed the script as an assembly resource.
Cory Larson recommends:
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= Page.ResolveClientUrl("~/tooltip.js") %>"></script>
Try
<script type="text/javascript" src=<%=Request.ApplicationPath+"/Scripts/Script_Name"%>></script>
I've been using url rewriting and "~" occasionally chokes on special characters in the url even when they are encoded.
If the script tag is in the HEAD element just use a path that is relative to the master page and asp.net will automatically fix the reference for you. Just make sure that the HEAD element has the runat=”server” attribute.
This also works really well for CSS files. It's the only way I've been able to get them to resolve in the VS.NET designer.
Here is a sample from my project:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../styles/reset.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../styles/960.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../styles/default.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../styles/buttons.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="../jQuery/jquery-1.3.2.js"></script>
</head>
Linked style sheets can be put within the header (with runat="server") and use a ~ to resolve to the root. However, Javascript files cannot be referenced this way. One additional way to add scripts is with a script manager in the body.
<html>
<head runat="server">
<title>title</title>
<link href="~/Styles/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<form runat="server">
<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager" runat="server" EnablePageMethods="true">
<Scripts>
<asp:ScriptReference Path="~/Scripts/jquery-1.4.2.js" />
<asp:ScriptReference Path="~/Scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.custom.min.js" />
</Scripts>
</asp:ScriptManager>
</body>
</html>
As answered # [Include Javascript adn CSS][1]
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/404942/Include-JavaScript-and-CSS-on-your-MasterPage
For CSS files:
<link href="<%# ResolveUrl("~/") %>css/custom-theme/jquery-ui-1.8.21.custom.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
For JavaScripts:
<script src="<%# ResolveUrl("~/") %>Scripts/jquery-1.7.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Can you explain what you mean by the "~/" isn't working? It should be exactly what you're looking for. You might check that your head tag has the runat="server" attribute, since that might prevent the "~/" from working.
