# Navigating to a URL

**RadTreeView** allows three types of **Node** actions:

* URL navigation (**NavigateUrl** attribute)

* [Client-side JavaScript events](https://www.telerik.com/products/aspnet-ajax/documentation/controls/treeview/client-side-programming/events/overview) (**ClientEvent** attribute)

* [Server-side postback events](https://www.telerik.com/products/aspnet-ajax/documentation/controls/treeview/server-side-programming/events/overview) (**PostBack** attribute)

## URL Navigation

If you want a particular **Node** to navigate to a given URL location, set the **NavigateUrl** attribute.

| This code sets the tree Node myNode to be a link to relative URL location "auctions.aspx?id=4".                                                | //codeRadTreeNode myNode= new RadTreeNode ();myNode.NavigateUrl = "auctions.aspx?id=4"; |
| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| This XML code has the same effect as the one above. It sets the tree Node "MyLabel" to be a link to the same URL location "auctions.aspx?id=4" | // xml<Node Text= "MyLabel" NavigateUrl= "auctions.aspx?id=4" />                        |

## URL Navigation (frames)

RadTreeView fully supports frames, as well. You can set URL Navigation for a specified frame by using the **Target** attribute. Note: **Target** supports "**\_blank**" for opening in a new window.

```C#
RadTreeNode myNode = new RadTreeNode ();
myNode.NavigateUrl = "auctions.aspx?id=4";
myNode.Target = "contentFrame"; 		
```

```VB.NET
Dim myNode As New RadTreeNode()
myNode.NavigateUrl = "auctions.aspx?id=4"
myNode.Target = "contentFrame" 
```

```ASPNET
<node text="MyLabel" navigateurl="auctions.aspx?id=4" target="contentFrame" />
```

> note For URL links outside your site you must provide full URL, i.e. NavigateUrl="[http://www.yahoo.com](http://www.yahoo.com/)"
