Hi there

Why are you calling MapPath twice? You only need it once...

And why are you creating a new _Default page instance? The whole idea behind static methods is that you can call them without an instance. I'd make My static as well (and rename it to something more logical......)

that was my silly mistake i did not take glance on it

....that was by mistake ....and as u asked I am making _Default class object becos without that I am not able to get that method inside the Static MyMethod() method...but Now it is running fine...
Is there any other way too to call that method without making any instance of My() function method.

one thing more friend cant i use "Server" class inside the Static Function ...?

Thanks cheers :)

Yes, make My static as well.

You can use HttpContext.Current to get at the Server class....

Thanks for ur reply Imar,

I am confused to take static...as the static variable which always gets one for all the clients..I mean to say suppose I have one static variable in my site suppose it is
static int a = 0;

and Two clients opened my page 1st client puts value "10" to it..and at the just after 2nd client puts "20" so that value overwrites the other client value too. so now value will be 20 for all the clients. Is it write ?

if yes then is it not risky to use static function or variable in websites until u dont have any particular requirement.

thanks!!

Hi there,

Yes, statics are used and shared throughout the application. However, when you write static methods that don't rely on instance state you're OK. In the case of HttpContext.Current you get access to a *current* instance which only applies to the current request. This means whatever you use there is request specific (stuff like Session, QueryString etc are all available)...
