I want, to load a website based on a link label text.
I am currently using the following code to do so:

C#

LinkLabel input = (LinkLabel)sender;
        Process.Start("http://{0}",input.Text.ToString());

However when I click on a link, it just directs me to:

http://%7B0%7D/ which is not what I want it to do!

Any help is appreciated!

I can't understand. What have you expected Process.Start will do?

Use Below Code

C#

private void linkLabel1_LinkClicked(object sender, LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs e)
        {
            LinkLabel input = (LinkLabel)sender;
            Process.Start("http://"+input.Text);
        }

Hi,

It looks like your string in not getting joined properly.

Try building the string via string.concat():

C#

Process.Start(string.concat("http://",input.Text.ToString()));

Hope it helps.
