windows phone app navigation error: NavigationService does not exist in current Context

Question

I am developing a small windows phone application.

I want to navigate from MainPage.xaml to secondPage.xaml

NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("SecondPage.xaml", UriKind.Relative));

But it show an error message that NavigateService does not exist in current Context

Answer 1

Since you are working on a Windows Phone XAML app, you need to handle navigation using the Frame property of page, like this

this.Frame.Navigate(typeof(SecondPage));

Also, as you see above, you need to pass typeof(Page) instead of Uri.
