asp.net mvc url action in javascript code and IIS publish

Question

I am developing asp.net mvc project. I have a javascript object that sends query to controller action. in cshtml file I can use @Url.Action("get", "product") so when I publish the web site, url action is rendering by location url. If I publish it http://localhost/App1/, the action url is like this http://localhost/App1/product/get or I can publish it another directory like http://localhost/App2/ and so on.

But I have an issue in javascript code.

sample.js

function query(){
    var url = "/product/get";

    // send query this url
}

When I publish the project in http://localhost/App1/ url (APP1 folder), javascript query is sending request to http://localhost/product/get , but it should be like this http://localhost/App1/product/get

I can not use @Url.action() razor expression. How can I solve this issue?

Why can not you use @Url.action() razor expression if it is mvc 4 application? — Jeyhun Rahimov

You can place root level appPath variable in your _layout.cshtml

<script type="text/javascript">
    var appPath = @Url.Content("~/");
</script>

Then in your query

function query(){
    var url = appPath +"/product/get";
}

I send the url as a parameter from the View to the javascript function which is written in a js file. This saves you the trouble of creating a url in js and you can use you razor expression for the same.

So your function becomes:-

function query(url){
//var url = "/product/get";
// send query this url
}
