I would like to rewrite only main url with some extra parameters. And I need to do this just for GET requests.

I saw basic example on how to rewrite url. I want to extend this one to just MAIN (not sub requests) GET requests.

Could you please help?

Thanks

Hello,

Below is a code fragment from the manual, see the PDF file in the folder {Add-in Express}\Docs on your development PC: 

Redirecting to a web site.
'VB.NET
Imports AddinExpress.IE
Imports IE = Interop.SHDocVw
'?Â?Ð??
Private Sub IEModule_BeforeNavigate2 _
    (e As ADXIEBeforeNavigate2EventArgs) Handles MyBase.BeforeNavigate2

    If e.Url.ToString().ToLower().Contains("www.site1.com") Then
        e.Cancel = True
        Me.IEApp.Navigate2("www.site2.com")
    End If
End Sub


Hope this helps.

Thanks Andrei. I want to do this for GET requests only and not POST requests. Is this method called only GET requests?

Hello,

The parameters supplied after the question mark are passed via GET, see for instance the full path of this page: {site/folder/page}?param1=val1¶m2=val2 etc.

I went back and tried couple of things.
What is happening is, if I go to http://www.amazon.com, beforenavigate2 method is getting called for each sub resource and my code is getting executed for each one. Is there any way that I can identify, if it is root url (i.e., www.amazon.com) only?

I need to ignore processing all sub-resource urls.

Thanks

Hello,

Please try to use the Url property of the ADXIEBeforeNavigate2EventArgs argument to learn what the resource is requested.
