URL keyword / manipulation

[Cipher001]

I need a way to manipulate a received URL from ASP.

Example :
Client No 1 URL :

http://www.url.com/client1

Client No 2 URL :

http://www.url.com/client2

Client 3 name name3 :

http://www.url.com/name3

client 4 name name4 :

http://www.url.com/url4

This needs to be a dynamic database driven process, when keyword in URL found in database, include spesific client content in page.

I have tried rewriting the 404b.htm page as a 404b.asp page that redirects according to keyword found in request.servervariables("URL&quot.

Please help !! URgent !!!

1. Get the request.servervariables("http_referer&quot

2. Parse this url to get the keyword, which based on your example urls above looks to be the word behind the last "/", so in this case you would something like

arrKeyword = split(request.servervariables("http_referer"),"/")
strKeyword = UBound(arrKeyword)

3. Get results based on the upper bound keyword

Oh, you want to create a custom error page? My overisight...

You can place the error page (asp file) anywhere on your webserver, but you need to change the property settings in IIS to accommodate for the new ASP file.

1. Open Internet Service Manager
2. Right click on application directory
3. Select Custom Errors tab
4. Select the appropriate error page you want to replace
5. Edit Properties
6. Change drop down to URL, then specify path to your custom asp page.

You may need to restart the server, but I don't think so. My daily story these days:
9am => 3p [flush] => 6p => 10p 12a => 1a 3a => fri

This will work perfectly, if only IIS supported redirection of errors to asp pages. On selection of an ASP page, the error redirects to the default htm page. quite SAD if u ask me....

will have to try the same usinh clientside javascript to redirect now... eish

They do, I was able to get my error500 page to be re-routed to my custom asp page without problems. Is there something different about what you are attempting? My daily story these days:
