Using a 404 pages to perform a basic URL rewriting is Good. But not support 304 Not Modified to increase performance by validation caching.

Hi guys, I have a question: Currenclty I use a 404 pages to perform a basic URL rewriting, that works perfectly so I am asking why there is a such plugins on IIS? Is there a performance issue?

Cheers

Technically yes, a URL rewriting solution can be faster. However not everything people want to rewrite would generate a 404. For example "www.ask-leo.com" would work but I URL-rewrite it to "ask-leo.com" so all URLs are consistant.

You can also use a custom 404 error page to catch missing urls(Or rewrite urls in this case), and then server.transfer to the correct page, or redirect.

You can always use meta refresh tags.

Is this the only way to redirect .htm or .html files on an IIS Server?

There are also a few rewriting options from within ASP.NET, although they're not great. I've written up an overview of what you can do here:

I ended up using Ionic's rewrite filter, works great.

I wouldn't mind springing $50 for a good solution but it seems you have to update software version when migrating between OS (2000 to 2003) and service pack updates. Too much maintenance.

I agree with the other comment. This is such a basic piece of web server functionality that it's ridiculous that there's no equivalent to mod_rewrite (or the various other similar FREE modules) in Apache.

I guess it shouldn't be a surprise why Apache has 70% of the market share and rising.

Sigh.

I can't believe you have to pay for this simple functionality. God bless open source software like Apache.
