The web page contains a text box to enter the site URL. By clicking the submit button, web page populates the dropdown list with sub sites details if it exists and displays the site information.
First of all you will need to add the Microsoft.SharePoint.dll to your web application reference list. This will give us the access to the SharePoint Object Model.
Then instantiate the SPSite object as displayed below. I have written this code in Click event of the Submit button. The absolute URL is passed in through the txtWSSSiteUrl text box. This will populate site collection for the given URL.
//Get the site collection
SPSite mySiteCollection = new SPSite(txtWSSSiteUrl.Text);
Then to access an individual site, instantiate the SPWeb object as displayed below. I am passing in the site name as a parameter.
//Get the details of the selected WSS site
SPWeb site = mySiteCollection.AllWebs[siteName];
After constructing the site SPWeb object, the developer can access the information of the site using the public properties of the SPWeb object as displayed below.
