Difference between Site.Url and Web.Url ?

Aman Gupta

Hello All,

I am new in SharePoint and I want to know the difference between `SP.Context.Site.Url, SP.Context.Web.Url and SP.Context.Site.RootWeb` ?

Please help me to know the difference between them.

Thanks in advance.

The SP.Context.Site class represents a collection of sites contained on a virtual server, which includes the top-level (root) site and all its subsites. Each SP.Context.Site object can be found within the Sites property of an WebApplication class.

The SP.Context.Web class represents an instance of a single website. It is often confusing to developers because the root web of a site collection (which is created when a site collection is created) is an instance of the SP.Context.Web class.
