FN-FORUM: ISAPI Rewrite issues

date posted 11th September 2007 13:23

I'm using an ASP ISAPI rewrite component which I think does what most
of you would know as mod rewrite. I've come across issues when using
# (hash) and / (forward slash) characters.

For example I get an error when you click on the first 2 links on this page:

http://www.perpetual-solutions.com.servwise.com/training-courses/133,3/TCP/IP,-IP,-IPv6-Training-Courses.htm

For the # sign I just did a 'replace with nothing' to remove it. This
isn't ideal as I want people to be able to search for C# courses and
have my pages indexed as such. I'm kind of assuming there's no way
round it (browsers treat hashes with bookmarks and slashes with folder
paths).

But I thought I'd check just in case. Am I doing the right thing?
Whilst I'm at it, are there any other characters that would cause me
problems?

TIA
