Re: What's the simplest way to do URL rewriting?

Do you know where I can find more information about how to use it? The
SDK is pretty short on explanation.

I tried adding the following to a page ...

void Page_Load(Object sender,EventArgs e) {
//Create a 'Httpcontext' object using 'Current' property
HttpContext myContext = HttpContext.Current;
//Rewrite the internal path
myContext.RewritePath("/");
}

and loading it, but the page (which is not the site's root page) just
loaded as normal.

How would I achieve what I asked, ie allow the user to request
http://www.whatever.com/orders/123 and have this translated into
http://www.whatever.com/orders.aspx?orderid=123

Probably. That certainly made is confusing. Please could you explain how
the HttpContext.Rewrite is used without modules and handlers.

Thanks for the reply.
