- Description:
-
- Redirect is a sample ISAPI extension to demonstrate redirecting
- a request. It redirects requests to a URL specified on the
- query string. If no query string is present, or if the query
- string is not identified as a legal target for redirection,
- Redirect.dll will return a page to the client with brief
- instructions for its use.
-
- Redirections to a resource on the same server as the dll will
- be handled by IIS and will be transparent to the browser.
- Redirections to a resource on a different server will result
- in an HTTP 302 response instructing the browser to obtain the
- resource from another location.
-
- To Install:
-
- Build the redirect.dsw project and copy the resulting Redirect.dll
- file into a virtual directory containing execute permissions.
-
- To Run:
-
- Reference the Redirect.dll file as a URL from a browser, specifying
- a URL on the query string.
-
- For example, the following URL entered on the address line of
- Internet Explorer will redirect the request to the specified
- URL on a different server:
-
- http://server/scripts/Redirect.dll?http://server2/virtualdir/file.htm
-
- The following URL entered on the address line will redirect the
- request to the specified resource on the same server:
-
- http://server/scripts/Redirect.dll?/virtualdir/file.htm

- This sample, and the included automation dll, is provided for the
