Hello everyone,

Could you please help me with this issue it is urgent.
I am traying to call a page http://www.whatevers.com but I need to build the request and to add some new values to the header collection because this servers need that value in the request.
I want that once the request is made the browser jumps directly to that url too

Could you help me with this

Thanks in advance 

Armando 

u can add a HttpModule to trap the request and make the changes and forward request again

Hello,

Thanks for your answer I just did that, and I also registered the module in the Web.config, when I run the code the following error comes out:

Error Line: ---------   Dim headers As NameValueCollection = response.Headers
Error Description--  This operation requires IIS integrated pipeline mode.

At the end of my message I paste the portion of my code for you to see.

I try also with: response.AddHeader("variable","value") and it do not send the header in the response.

Thanks very much in advance for your help

Armando

-----Code ---- 

   Dim headers As NameValueCollection = response.Headers

   p.SetValue(headers, False, Nothing)
   headers.Add("USER_VAR", "MyName")

End Sub

You need to register an event handler with one of the ASP.NET pipeline events, I think in this case like AuthenticateRequest or somewhere in there. Then your event handler will execute your code to do the 301 redirect.

Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic

Public Overrides Sub Dispose()

End Sub

MyBase.Init(context)

End Sub

Dim app As HttpApplication = CType(sender, HttpApplication)

If Not IsNothing(ht(sPath)) Then

app.Response.StatusCode = 301 ' make a permanent redirect

End If

End Sub

Dim ht As New Hashtable

ht.Add("~/default.htm", "default.aspx")

ht.Add("~/Chrysler.aspx", "Mercedes.aspx")

End Function

End Class

Hello,

I tried the example you typed but it did not work for me. That's exactly what I want to do, just add header variables to a HttpResponse object in order to when this get the destination my header variable is added to the pipeline. 

Could you please send me a more complete example?

 Thanks very much in advance

This is a custom httpModule, did you register the module in your web.config?

Hi Chist,

I did registered the module in the Web.Config but it does not work either. Let me say something, I have IIS version 5.1, I running on Windows XP and I have no idea if it can  affect the code generated.

Do you have any other way to add to add headers to the response.

Thank you very much,
Armando

Even if you set a break point in the code you cannot step through it? You do realize you need to create your own map of URLs that need to return a 301 redirect header right? This is just an example to give you the basic framework and idea. You need to somehow do your own URLs.
