Issue With Response.Redirect / Server.Transfer

Server.transfer Vs. Response.redirect
ok here is my scenario - using model, vew , controller architecture:

-- user submits the view page to the controller

-- controller issues a server.execute on a model page to update the changed information

-- upon successful updating of the the information, the controller issues server.transfer back to the view

-- everything is fine at at this point, however, if the user hits the
re-submits the page at this point, the original items are still in the
request object from the first time around because the page never went out of
scope - so this causes another update to be inssued because changes are
detected between what is in the database and what is in the request.form
collection.

Server.Transfer Vs. Response.Redirect... To... 209.11.22.33MyDir
Ok, I give up... why do 1-4 work fine... but 5-6 give "can't find" errors?

1. Client-side VBscript code: call navigate("209.11.22.33MyDir")
2. Client-side VBscript code: location.href ="209.11.22.33MyDir"
3. Typing "209.11.22.33MyDir" into my ie6 browser.
4. Typing "209.11.22.33MyDir" into my Windows Explorer.

5. Server-side ASP: server.transfer "209.11.22.33MyDir"
6. Server-side ASP: response.redirect 209.11.22.33MyDir"

How do I make it redirect?

Server.Transfer, Response.Redirect, #Include, & Security?
I've got an application that I want to redirect to another file while keeping the location of the file hidden. In other words,

WEBROOT.COM/REDIT.ASP?a=14

is going to display the contents of file
WEBROOT.COM/SECURE12954

without the user knowing they are in the /SECURE12954 subdir.

Which is better to protect that privacy the name of the /SECURE12954 subdir?

<%Server.Transfer("/SECURE12954")%>
or
<%Response.Redirect("/SECURE12954")%>
or
<!-- #include file="/SECURE12954" -->

Server.execute/response.redirect/server.transfer
Real quick, please refresh my memory which one of the following preserves the information that was posted from a form?

server.execute

server.transfer

response.redirect

I need to have a page execute if an error occurs while processing a page that a form was submitted to and have the data preserved.

Response.Redirect Issue
All I want to do is use a simple redirect to bring the user to a different page but for some reason it will not work. I have checked the syntax a million times, checked with books and it is 100% correct but it will still not redirect me. Here is my code:

if Request.Form("Clear") = "Clear" then
Response.Write("<h1>CLEAR</h1>")
Response.Redirect(Request.ServerVariables"HTTP_REFERER"))
end if

I have the Response.Write in there just to see if my 'if' statement is true and it is. It writes but it will not redirect me at all. I even had a check on the path to see if it was outputting properly and it was.

Redirect To Secure FTP Site Via Response.redirect
I am trying to use the following in an ASP page to redirect a user to a
non-anonymous FTP site:

response.redirect("ftp://myusername:mypassword@ftp.mysite.com")

but I keep getting a "permission denied" error. If I just put the same
address string in IE6's Address box and go to it, IE opens myusername's FTP
home page just fine, so I know the FTP site is working as expected. Also,
if I put in an anonymous ftp site, without the username and password (e.g.
"ftp://ftp.microsoft.com"), the redirect works fine, too.

I don't want the user to be prompted by IE for the username and password at
the FTP site, so I am providing them from within the web site.

What can be preventing the response.redirect from handling non-anonymous FTP
access? Is there a better way to do this?

Asp Eof Response Write Issue
I am creating a page that will take date passed from a session then it does a query to the SQL to see if a matching record can be found (based on the date). If it is found it will return the record... No big deal here... But I am getting messed up because I have always used a redirect if a an EOF happened...

Because of the way the asp page works I need at EOF message to show on the SAME page as the record set would if it were to exisit... Code:

301 Redirect And URL Rewriting Issue
I'm using an open source .NET URL rewriter to handing 301 permanent redirect and url rewriting on my site. We want to use the url rewrite to clean up our urls for SEO purposes, and we want to use the 301 redirect because we are changing up the directory structure for the URL paths. With the URL rewriter, we can use regular expressions in the web.config for both the redirecting and rewriting.

Well, our current naming convention makes it impossible to use a regular expression for the redirect. It's an apartment site, and for the ratings pages the url paths looks like this: Code:

Issue With Redirect Script In FireFox
I am having an issue using the 'Response.Redirect' command in FireFox.

I have an ASP page called dltrack.asp that, in order to track how many times certain MP3s are downloaded on our website, opens and updates a tally in a database, then redirects to the location of the MP3 on our server for the user to download the track. The redirect script i am using is:

Response.ContentType = "application/x-zip-compressed"
Response.Redirect (url)

Where the url is the location of the MP3 to be downloaded. When a user right clicks 'Save Target As' in Internet Explorer this works fine, but in FireFox when a user right clicks and selects 'Save Link As' FireFox downloads the MP3 but it is named 'dltrack.asp' instead of the filename of the song with an mp3 extension. Code:

Response.Write And Window.open Issue
I have an asp and a page with two frames. (constant, main)
I would like to show the page on a different frame. (main)
Here is what I have:

I am working in C#


void MYSelectedChangeEventHandlerFunction(DropDownList DD)
{
try
{
string address = DD.SelectedItem.Value;
//Response.Redirect("address");
Response.Write(" <script> window.open(address,main); </script> ")
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
DD.Items.Add("Dir Errors Found!");
}

}

What AM I doing wrong? Is there a better way to out put the page to a different frame within the function.

Server.Transfer
I would like to use Server.Transfer to redirect users to a given page,
while maintaining the state of form fields. This works fine on a single
server.
However, this will be deployed in a load balanced environment. I know
that Session variables and load balanced environments don't mix. Do I
have a cause for concern with Server.Transfer as well?

Server.Transfer Between 2 Different Web Apps
I have 2 seperate web applications A and B. During the execution of A, I want to do a Server.Transfer to a page in application B. This works fine if A has a reference to B, but without the reference, I get the following error:

Parser Error

Description:

An error occurred during the parsing of a resource
required to service this request. Please review the
following specific parse error details and modify your

It seems to be looking for B.dll in the path for application A, and can't find it. Because of the specifics of this project I am unable to set a reference, or even include a <codeBase> element in the config file. Is there any way to force the runtime to look in the path of the target application instead of the launching app?

3. The page it gets transfered to?

Server.transfer Second Parameter
I read somewhere that server.transfer had a 2nd parameter so control and input values were 'passed' to the transferred to page, but it's giving me an error of wrong number of parameters. I have IIS5, is that the problem? or is it that it's an ASP page (not ASPX)

Server.Transfer Into A Frame
I'm trying to pass 2 simple values (an integer and a string) from a start page (start.aspx) to an aspx contained within a frameset (say destpage.aspx).

I can server.transfer the values directly to destpage.aspx but I'm struggling to work out how pass the form values to destpage.aspx when it is contained in a frameset.

Is there an easier way? Is it possible to pass the values to an aspx that defines the frameset then pass to destpage.aspx?

Server.Transfer Method...
Got a quick query in relation to the Server.Transfer method available in IIS
5+/ASP. I've got an issue where I want to take a portion of an online app and
extract this out into a web site on its own, so I will end up having two web
sites. This planned to aid problems we've been having with performance, as if
the portion (which is an app in its own right) has problems we then have to
restart the whole site and so bring everything down just because of the
portion of the app which we're having issues with. Taking the portion of the
site will allow us to run it in isolated mode in ISS and so just restrat that
if needed, while not affecting the rest of IIS.

Anyways, I'm in the process of writing a jump page to facilitate the process
of moving from the first site to the new second site, but as we need to reuse
session info created in site 1 I need a way of passing this over to the
second site.

I've been aware of the Server.Transfer but never really used it so I'm not
too sure how I can actually use this. I was planning to write an ASP page
that takes the required info out of session is site 1, calling
Server.Transfere to send it over to the second site. I don't want to do a
Response.Redirect, not wanting the client to do this and not allowing it to
know what info I'm using in the session.

And so, I thought the Server.Transfer would facilitate this, but after
reading some of the documentation on MSDN I'm not sure I can, ie: redirect to
another ASP page in this way and tack on a QueryString holding all the
session info I need, as MSDN says that I'll get an 'ASP 0173 error, "Invalid
Path Character"' error if I have a question-mark '?' in the path, or any
other of a list of invalid chars. But then I need this '?' char to build my
QString ie: XXX.asp?sas=123&jdy=0689...

So what I'm after is some clarification that I can use Server.Transfere in
this way or not, ie to redirect to an ASP page and tack on a QueryString, of
if it just allows for an ASP page without s QString. So then if I want to do
this I might need to use the Response.Redirect method, or some other way!!

MSDN also says: "When you use the Transfer method, the state information for
all the built-in objects are included in the transfer. This means that any
variables or objects that have been assigned a value in session or
application scope are maintained"

....So will I have the session info from site 1 available in site 2 after the
redirect or does this only apply for a Server.Transfer within the same web
(which I think is what it means!).

I don't have an environment up that I can test this on yet so I'm kinda
feeling may wat in the dark here, hence my lengthly post.

Response.redirect
I am using response.redirec to do the url redirection on my login page. The
login page is under http://myURL/test/dir1/login.aspx, when the user login
successfully, the login page redirects the user to the default.apsx page,
which is under http://myURL/test/dir1/default.aspx.
When I enter the IP address of myURL in the address bar, the redirection
works perfectly fine, but if I enter myURL (which is hostname) in the address
bar, the redirection in login page doesn't work anymore, the login page just
gets refreshed.

Response.redirect
response.redirect seems to urlencode a querystring thrown across at it..
is there a way to disable this function that anyone knows of?

ie..
response.redirect "http://www.blurb.com/default.asp?test=sweet+%26+sour"

actually comes back after the redirect with the % urlencoded which obviously
considering its been given the encoding anyway is a nightmare.. ie
"http://www.blurb.com/default.asp?test=sweet+%2526+sour"

and subsequent redirections would just keep replacing the starting % with
%25...

tell meif it can be disabled through IIS somehow
