Stating directive templateUrl relative to root
Looks like it's supported. Taken from a thread on AngularJS Google Group:
the url with "/" prefix is relative to the domain, without the "/" prefix it will be relative to the main ("index.html") page or base url (if you use location in the html5 mode).
This works fine:
templateUrl: '/Scripts/app/templates/personalDetails.html'
Looks like you're trying to do ASP.NET style app-relative paths but client-side. The fix is actually in HTML: add a base tag in the head, like this:
<base href="<%= Request.ApplicationPath %>" />
Then keep your template paths relative to this, as in
templateUrl: 'Scripts/app/templates/personalDetails.html'
Use '././Scripts/app/templates/personalDetails.html'
it worked for me.
