I got a asp site hosted in a iis server. In the server there is a virtual folder products and whenever a url like xyz.com/products/abc_11.asp is provided it is forwared to xyz.com/product.asp?id=11 page.
I would like to know from where we can change that settings?
These settings or tasks can be done from where?
Thnx
Does the folder “products” or file “abc_11.asp” physically exist on the webserver? There are many ways to accomplish the task of having a sepcific url forward to another url.
There are URL rewritting ISAPI addons for IIS, like ISAPI_Rewrite. ISAPI_Rewrite will have a httpd.ini file either in the ISAPI_Rewrite installation folder or the physical folder for the website.
II6 has the ability to redirect a request for a folder or a file to another location. This is configured by viewing the properties for the folder or file in the IIS Admin. On the Directory/File tab you will see 3 radio buttons, one of which is “A redirection to a URL”.
The file can physically exists and in it is code to redirect the user.
