stripping default.aspx and //www from the url
- by b0x0rz
the code to strip /Default.aspx and //www is not working (as expected):
protected void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
HttpContext context = HttpContext.Current;
string url = context.Request.RawUrl.ToString();
bool doRedirect = false;
// remove > default.aspx
if (url.EndsWith("/default.aspx", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
{
url = url.Substring(0, url.Length - 12);
doRedirect = true;
}
// remove > www
if (url.Contains("//www"))
{
url = url.Replace("//www", "//");
doRedirect = true;
}
// redirect if necessary
if (doRedirect)
{
context.Response.Redirect(url);
}
}
it works usually, but when submitting a form (sign in for example) the code above INTERCEPTS the request and then does a redirect to the same page. example:
try to arrive at page: ~/SignIn/Default.aspx
the requests gets intercepted and fixed to: ~/SignIn/
fill the form, click sign in
the current page url goes from: ~/SignIn/ to ~/SignIn/Default.aspx and gets fixed again, thus voiding the processing of the method SignIn (which would have redirected the browser to /SignIn/Success/) and the page is reloaded as ~/SignIn/ and no sign in was done.
please help. not sure what / how to fix here.
the main REQUIREMENT here is:
remove /Default.aspx and //www from url's
thnx
