I have an aspx page inside the layouts folder in sharepoint 2013 and I am trying to access that page from a webpart by providing the url. However, I am getting a 404 - page not found error. But when the file, I can see, physically exists in that location.
3 Jan 2013 by Sandeep Mewara
Well, based on error 404 - the URL formed is pointing to a location where the folder is not present. Make sure that the URL is actually pointing to the same location where you expect it too. Relative URL's at times are little tricky.

You are only updating the view object which has nothing to do with what is displayed. The DataList being displayed needs to be refreshed so the updated view will be used.
