@Hemant: I am not that familiar with URL Rewriting.NET. Have you tried using the IIS URL Rewrite Module instead? URL Rewrite 2.0 has a feature for changing the URL’s in the response HTML. You could use it to change the form.Action element in the response.

Bill, did you install .net 3.5 SP1 after URL rewrite? If yes, then you will need to re-install the URL Rewrite so that it applies the patch for the ASP.NET which fixes the Request.RawUrl behavior.

We just moved our development boxes from IIS6 to IIS7 and were eager to replace our home grown url rewrite with IIS7 rewrite. .Net 3.5 SP1 is installed. The rewrite is working as expected, no issues, but we are unable to retrieve the original url and update the postback url. Both Request.RawUrl and Request.ServerVariables(“HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_URL”) contain the rewritten URL instead of the orginal URL. What did we miss?

TIA,
Bill

In our web page we use the following to remove default.aspx. We use as above we get post action="/default.aspx" and the post back is not working for the home page. so we made the following change. form1.Action = Request.RawUrl.Replace("default.aspx", "") so we made the modification,

Thanks, that fixed my problem..

@Ruslany: FYI, I’m targeting .Net 2.0 and HtmlForm.Action property was present.

Thanks so much – I had tried for days to get https redirection to work – the documentation is just vague enough to get me close but no results – your example worked the first try!
