if you write whole path like localhost .... etc it will not work when you host website on actual server you should use relative path like below ~/cart.aspx ~/products.aspx if your page is in some directory then ~/products/production.aspx please check  do you like this answer :)

well my friend. using relative url is always better in order to make sure your link will work without changes if you change domains on the way. and another thing is that its better for Search Engines since they are checking the Links as well for ranking sites and a site with internal links insted of external ones has a higher rank
