How to redirect url using UrlRewriter.Net

Hi,

I am pretty new to URL Rewriting concept. In my project I need to display the url

say for eg. localhost/default.aspx as localhost/en/default.

Also, if the url is like localhost/en/default.aspx, it should redirect as localhost/en/default.

If the language selected is Chinese, the url will be localhost/zh-CHS/default-zh.aspx .

It should be rewritten as localhost/zh-CHS/default-zh.

Also, if url in chinese is localhost/about-zh.aspx it should be displayed as localhost/zh-CHS/about-zh.

The default language is English.

I am trying to achieve this with UrlRewriter.Net (Intelligencia.UrlRewriter)

Can anyone please tell how to write the rules in the web.config to achieve this?

I am doing this project in .Net 4.0 .

Please help.

Thanks,

Surya.

MSDN is your friends

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms972974.aspx#urlrewriting_topic7

And

http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/2538/URL-Rewriting-with-ASP-NET

Also you need some regular expression knowledge:

Hope it helpful.

Can anyone please help. I don't know how to write rules in web.config to achieve extensionless urls

Re: How to redirect url using UrlRewriter.Net

Have you readed the link I gave you?

First you need to download the URLRewriter.

http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/4/6/0463611e-a3f9-490d-a08c-877a83b797cf/MSDNURLRewriting.msi

Then add code like this in your web.config

<configuration>
	<configSections>
		<section name="RewriterConfig" type="URLRewriter.Config.RewriterConfigSerializerSectionHandler, URLRewriter"/>
	</configSections>
	<RewriterConfig>
		<Rules>
   
      <RewriterRule>
        <LookFor>/ShowQueryString_post/(\d{4})/(\d{2})/(\d{2})/(\d{1})</LookFor>
        <SendTo>~/ShowQueryString_post.aspx?Year=$1&amp;Month=$2&amp;Day=$3&amp;id=$4</SendTo>
      </RewriterRule>

    </Rules>
	</RewriterConfig>
	<system.web>

In my code LookFor is a regular expression(That's why I said you need to know the regular expression).

So when I input [domainname]/ShowQueryString_post/2012/05/02/1

It will convert to [domainname]/ShowQueryString_post.aspx?Year=2012&Month=05&Day=02id=1

Hope you read those link first, and then post threads with some specific problem.

Hope it helpful.

Hi,

I am trying with urlrewriter.net

For that I added a reference for Intelligencia.UrlRewriter dll in my project.

Then in web.config added these sections.

</configSections>

<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
<add name="UrlRewriter" type="Intelligencia.UrlRewriter.RewriterHttpModule" />
</modules>
</system.webServer>
<rewriter>

</rewriter>

I don't know how to write the rules in rewrite section.

You can refer to this link:http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/02/26/tip-trick-url-rewriting-with-asp-net.aspx

Can you understand this line?

(.+) this is a Regulary expression.

I had post the link before.

This line mean when you get ~/products/[anypagename].aspx it will convert to ~/products.aspx?category=[anypagename]

Here is some tutorial.

http://dotnetguts.blogspot.com/2008/07/url-rewriting-with-urlrewriternet.html

I think you just can't understand how does the Regular expression work.

I suggest you download this open source URL write module, and try to understand it first.
