Problems with Theme and Context.Rewrite Path()

MatsL

Hi,
I'm using Context.Rewrite Path() in a HttpModule to get url rewriting done.
http://localhost/Web1/articles ->
http://localhost/Web1/Default.aspx?m=articles

But I'm having problems with Themes when I'm using that.
The problem rises when my url ends with a '/'.

Example:
http://localhost/Web1/articles
works fine

but
http://localhost/Web1/articles/
doesn't.

My path's to my theme resources are messed up, being appended to the
url, like this:
http://localhost/Web1/articles/App_T...v/Articles.css

Has anyone else had this problem (and hopefully fixed it :)

Btw, I rewrite the path back to the original one in Page.OnPreInit( ) to
get my postbacks go to the rewritten url...

Best regards,
Mats Lycken

I had this exact problem. I fixed it by detecting the trialing '/' and
redirecting to the same URL without the '/'. Not very elegant but it worked,

Thanks Kevin,
I feared that would have to be my solution :\

Hello Mats,

Does Kevin's sugegstion helpful for your case?

As for the Rewriting, are you only using a HttpModule to perform the
urlrewriting? Based on my understanding, ASP.NET runtime will only receive
request which is targeting the ASP.NET specific document extensions (like
.aspx, .ascx..... ). And for the below style request path, IIS won't
forward it to ASP.NET runtime, have you also used other rewrite components
or are you only testing in VS 2005 test webserver?

http://localhost/Web1/articles
http://localhost/Web1/articles/

In addition, here is a web article which has mentioned a theme's path
rebasing issue when using URL Rewriting, it indicate that we can use the
HttpContext.Rew ritePath's override version to choose not rebase the url:

http://davidhayden.com/blog/dave/arc...1/14/2693.aspx

Anyway, please feel free to let me know if there is anything I missed or if
you have any particular concerns in your scenario.

Sincerely,

Form action and Context.RewritePath

I've a very annoying problem, I'm using Application_BeginRequest() and Context.RewritePath to hide query strings. The problem that I've is that a form that I submit to /Comments/17.aspx has form action of CommentView.aspx?story=17 (which is where the Context.RewritePath sent it).

Note that this is the case regardless of whether the assmbly is built against 1.1 or 2.0 We're getting the following exception stack trace: ...

Context.RewritePath, 2nd overload usage

by: Andrew2 | last post by:

Sorry guy for the (probably) stupid question, but reading and testing the second overload of the Context.RewritePath, that one with the rebaseClientPath param. Msdn says: true to reset the virtual path; false to keep the virtual path unchanged. I'd tried to use both combination and I'm not able to see any changes in the address bar, in Context.Request.RawUrl nor Context.Request.Path.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
