Hi,

I've got about how some FriendlyUrl stuff works.  I've spent hours trying to figure it out, but got nowhere.  How is it that the action attribute of the form does not have TabId querystring?  So, for example if I go to http://www.dotnetnuke.com/tabid/1/Default.aspx?test=2 it would get rewritten to www.dotnetnuke.com/Default.aspx?TabId=1&test=2 by the FriendlyUrlModule, before the request hits the actual Default.aspx page.  You would then think that in the action tag of the form you would get "Default.aspx?TabId=1&test=2", but in fact you get Default.aspx?test=2.  How is this achieved?  How is the TabId=1 stripped out.  I suspect it's somewhere in the friendlyUrl fixup for the outgoing page, but i couldn't find where?  Can anyone help?

Thanks

Hi,

Me again.  I've now worked out what the problem was.  In fact it had everything to do with the form Action Tag.  What is done in DNN is that an ActionLessform custom control is implemented.  This overrides the render method of the Httpform and fixes up the action.  This is not documented in the document on FriendlyUrls, but is documented on MSDN in an article called Url Rewriting that DNN basically uses as the base for how FriendlyUrls work.
