Question

I know that this has already been asked here but the answer (using a handler instead) doesn’t solve the issue, as I’m using a third party component that doesn’t implement IHttpHandler.

So, again, is there any way to load/unload a HttpModule on a certain request?

EDIT: I forgot to mention that we’re working with .NET 2.0. I’m sorry about forgeting it.

I haven’t tested this, but a comment in this article seems to suggest that it is possible to register modules only for certain locations by using a <location> element in web.config, e.g:

  <location path="some/path">
    <system.web>
      <httpModules>
        <remove name="name"/>
        <add name="name" type="type"/>
      </httpModules>
    </system.web>
  </location>
