C# detect page redirect
- by petebob796
I am trying to determine if a qualification exists on http://www.accreditedqualifications.org.uk
in the form:
http://www.accreditedqualifications.org.uk/qualification/50084811.seo.aspx
50084811 being a qualification aim entered by the end user.
If they enter an invalid one e.g.
http://www.accreditedqualifications.org.uk/qualification/50084911.seo.aspx
They are redirected to an error page (with incorrect http headers as far as I can see). Is there a way to detect the redirect in C#. I would hope to be able to detect the redirect in http headers (thinking it will issue 2) or similar as oppose to having to download the whole page. This could be happening a lot so I would like to minimize traffic.
