Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this in markup.

HTML

tn:notifyicon x:name="NotifyIcon" text="Keep me sane" icon="resources\UFO.ico" mousedoubleclick="NotifyIcon_DoubleClick" xmlns:x="#unknown" xmlns:tn="#unknown"

I get the following error,

Unsupported URI syntax. Method expects a relative URI or a pack://application:,,,/ form of absolute URI...

when I execute the program the icon IS shown ok?

What do I put i.s.o resources\UFO.ico if anything?

Where in the C# are you using it?
Some context would probably help...

That looks more like XML/HTML/XAML than C#.

If the icon is shown without any trouble, then what is the trouble. Somehow, if the program is compiled, linked and executed without any error then this is not an error it is a warning raised by the compiler.

As also said, this is not C# code this is XAML (XML) markup code to generate the GUI for your WPF (or anyother) application.

Well it compiles but I can't edit the resource(dialog) because of this error
Yes, sorry This is XAML

You might be editting the resource from the Visual Studio visual editor, right? Not directly from the code.

Have tried various format from this link
Cannot get it to work
I don't understand what a relative uri looks like that will point to this .ico file.

Thanls for input anyway.

Are you trying to create a notification area icon for your wpf app?
