Response.Redirect not changing URL?
In file FIRST.ASP, I've got
<% Response.Redirect "SECOND.ASP" %> The redirect is happening, and I'm seeing the content from SECOND.ASP in the browser, but the URL in the browser is still saying FIRST.ASP. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can insure the browser displays SECOND.ASP? I'm using IE6. THANKS, -Bill. Bill wrote:

The browser has to request SECOND.ASP in order for that to appear in theaddress bar. Server-side code cannot alter this. What you can do is redirect to an intermediate page that uses client-side code to navigate to SECOND.ASP > I'm using IE6 Microsoft MVP -- ASP/ASP.NETIrrelevant. -- Please reply to the newsgroup.

A Redirect does not change the name of the > page that was requested ... because it redirects the SERVER to the new page. Response.Redirect, according to Microsoft, "redirects a CLIENT to a new URL". In the past, it has always changed the URL for me. This is why Response.Redirect can be used to redirect to another server (Server.Transfer cannot). http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemwebhttpresponseclassredirecttopic.asp http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/iissdk/html/01d1962f-0d45-4a5b-a46c-1b7f38f37ab3.asp > > and how I can insure the browser displays SECOND.ASP? .

That's why Response.Redirect is less efficient than Server.Transfer, because ST doesn't communicate with the client, RD does. > What you can do is redirect to an intermediate page that uses client-side The browser URL changes in Firefox.> code to navigate to SECOND.ASP > > > I'm using IE6 > Irrelevant.

[For the second file's excution, that is] Clients are a nuisance, both they and their diverse browsers heavily interfere with perfect web scripting. I can imagine a NG especially for unserved serverside scripting. -- Evertjan. The Netherlands. (Please change the x'es to dots in my emailaddress) Bill wrote:

It's part of a security check application - first.asp does some security> I just ran some tests on my server, and the url changes as it is supposed to > (using IE6) > There aren't any frames involved are there? checking, then sets a few session variables & then does a Response.Redirect to second.asp. I'd really like the file name of first.asp to be secret - they can't do any real damage to my security (I don't thnk!), but every time first.asp is refreshed, it logs data info to a text file. While I can certainly eliminate the duplicate logging, that's just fixing the symptom, and not the cause. Bill. I've seen in the past that if I'm on page1.asp, and I had a server-side
error before the redirect, corrected the error, refreshed, IE would display the old URL even after the redirect. After closing the browser and going through the page again, it would redirect and show in the address bar as expected.

run your 1st asp page, redirect them to another page that does a quick meta-redirect to the 2nd asp page pretty sure that will solve the problem of them not seing the 1st page url in the browser when it is all said and done...
