I know this but why this works while first and usual way doesn't work?

The two dots indicate the parent folder; in other words to go up a level.

Here's the code for that link: ImageUrl=~/Data/rabbit-icon.png /> note that first that default page loads it has ~/Default.aspx address. after I changes ~ to .. it worked ! Why ? ImageUrl=../Data/rabbit-icon.png />

I think that the part of your question asking What is tilde is the most important part of your question and people are not seeing that; I don't understand why not. There are others that can answer that question bettr than I but the tilde indicates the directory that is the root for the domain; the directory that your site should consider to be the root directory. Or something like that. So try using href=~default.aspx/?param=value.
