SE Friendly URLs With ASP & IIS.
has any one tried SE Friendly URLs with ASP & IIS? There's nothing like mod_rewrite for IIS. Ofcourse there are some 3rd party COM available but how many of us can use them on shared webservers?
So, is there a way to do it?
For those people who don't know what I'm talking about,
Normal URLs with querystrings look like
http://www.example.com/myPage.asp?id=1
while SE Friendly URL will look like
http://www.example.com/mPage/1/
The operative words being look like. You will see the 2nd URL in the browser's address bar but the server will take it as the 1st URL.

My application runs on ASP and the business logic is embedded in Dlls written in VB. The application hosts a list of articles for the user to view and these are accessible through some complex urls like "http://mysite/articles/category1?articleid=34512". I would like to denote a friendly url to these articles such as "http://mysite/articles/kb_TaxPlanning.asp". I am thinking of using an ISAPI filter to do the work for me. My friend was trying on using a httphandler, but it did not work. Please share with us the resources for creating an isapi filter for the same. Also how to use the same for the expected result?

We have just signed up for salesforce.com and I need to somehow integrate the canned web-to-lead form from salesforce inside my login/registraiton system without messing up the existing 'join' form.My registration form is built on top of database while the alesform form isstatically generated form which is similiar but not exactly the same.
Post to two different urls at once for my main Join form.Or, perhaps 'hide' the salesforce.com form and somehow populate the values in the form and when the visitor clicks my Join form it also posts the sf form?

Is anyone aware of any sort of asp coding to deal with long URLs? I have a few asp that pull URLs from fields within a MS db, which then display on a width-limited table. Is there any way to wrap these long URLs such that my table doesn't get widened? e.g. wrapping at "/" or something similar?

Is there a way to add a header to a page that will change what text the
browser displays in the address field?
For example, say I point my browser to
http://www.domain.com/request.asp?a=1&b=2.
I would like IIS to send back the content generated by the page
request.asp, but would like the address is in the browser to read
"http://www.domain.com/request/index.asp"
Is there any possible way to do this? It seems like this should be possible.

For some of my pages I currently have part of the URL as being 'ourservices.asp?ID=1' (its got nothing to do with sessions) and I am currently changing part of it so its more SE-friendly - i.e. 'ourservices.asp?services=website-marketing'. However following Googles guidlines regarding dynamic URL's,. it says that some search engines don't crawl pages which have a '?' in them for fear of them being a session URL (which mine isn't).
My question is- is there any alternative that I can use to replace the '?' with another character for my dynamic URL. Or, is this the only way I can have this dynamic URL?

Has anyone seen a good solution for Search Engine Safe URLs with Classic ASP? I've been looking for a while and short of using the 404 or installing tool on the server I was hoping there might be something else.In ColdFusion you can do a server.com/myfile.cfm/id/410 and it just works ... (well, after you parse the slashes)

I having trouble with some of my classic asp pages being dropped from google.Specifically, a set of four pages reused many times with the content identified via query strings (max 3 variables). I was under the impression that google no longer has a problem with urls appended with query strings. Does anyone know if it is possible to incur penalties for the "over use" of such pages? My product detail page for example is used to display 230 seperate products.
if using static urls may help get my pages re-indexed, but I have had difficulty finding a way to do this with classic asp. Could anyone suggest a suitable method or advise possible reasons for my google disaster?

I am trying to SEO a website which gets content from a CMS, and is coded using ASP, running under shared IIS hosting.
There are urls like http://www.example.com/search.asp?it...6&third_id=Red
To get some keywords in there, I was thinking how to get a URL like this
http://www.example.com/Widgets/Special/Red/search.asp OR
http://www.example.com/special-red-widgets.html
convert automatically into the one above with ? and ids..
If this can work, I can have keyword rich URLs, which when clicked can turn into old ID urls, and fetch relevant content from the CMS.
I've heard about IIS redirect but am not sure how it works. Considering that the site is on a shared hosting, I wanted to know your opinion and best ways to achieve this.

This message is being brought to you by a few of your friendly neighborhood ASP programming solution providers:
Please attempt to solve your own problems before posting to Sitepoint. I know I (and other persons who will remain anonymous) find it a little irritating when one (or more) of the following happens:
1) We can type your question into Google and the answer is the first hit that comes up.
1.1) We can type your question into Sitepoint's search and the answer is the first hit that comes up.
2) Your question is answered two posts below your question.
3) The answer requires merely looking up the appropriate object/function in the ASP/VBScript references. *
4) Two or three minutes after posting your question, you post "Oh, nevermind, I got it." without even referencing the solution so other people with the same question will know how you did it.
* Note that we will be VERY happy to provide you with links to these kinds of references (and indeed already have in the Important ASP Resources thread - which happens to be marked important twice) upon your request (I know of at least one individual who links these references in his signature also).
Now, please don't think that I'm ranting and raving. I'm just trying to inform those persons who do the above on a regular basis. It grows tiresome when I login for the day and all 5 new posts are questions that are easily answered with a simple link that could have been found if the one who posted the question would have spent 30 seconds researching his/her problem.
Mentors, Advisors, and Sitepoint Team Members:
If the opinions of this post are contrary to that of Sitepoint, please let us know. I would suspect that you would like us to spend our time on questions that are not easily answered instead of just repeating information which is already easily accessible.

Is there a way to get a printer friendly page using ASP. And when I say this I do not mean removing banner, picture etc and print the page.
The problem I face is, an ASP output is a big table with say 10-15 columns and it would not print even in landscape mode. So if I print the output from the IE browser the right side of the table gets cut. I want to know if there is an ASP code to over come this problem.

What are the best approaches to create printer friendly pages in ASP web sites.? provide us help or links to useful artciles on this topic. Also can we avoid creating separate printer friendly pages and send the current page output to printer as the PRINT

I'm having problems finding a guide for search engine friendly URLs for ASP. I found some program for sale that needs to be installed into IIS, but this is no good. My web hosting provider would never allow this.
Can anyone point me to a helpful guide in creating search engine friendly URLs out of dynamic sites for a Windows server with ASP? If someone knows of any good hosting providers who already have the ISAPI_rewrite filter installed for its customers, that would be great also.

I downloaded this simple function from 4Guys that uses RegEx to convert all URLs into hyperlinks. I need to alter it slightly so that the end of the link will be determined by a space (it does this now), or a "?", which ever comes first.
The problem is, I don't have a good grasp on RegEx patterns and I can't find how to do this. My pattern is below. Can someone tell me how to alter it to do this?
objRegExp.Pattern = "(www|http|S+@)S+"
