Getting full URL from URL with tilde(~) sign

Question

I am trying to get a typical asp.net url starting with the tilde sign (\'~\') to parse into a full exact url starting with \"http:\"

I have this string \"~/PageB.asp

If you're in a page handler you could always use the ResolveUrl method to convert the relative path to a server specific path. But if you want the "http://www.yourserver.se" part aswell, you'll have to prepend the Request.Url.Scheme and Request.Url.Authority to it.
