I have spent over 25 hours this weekend working on this issue. Since I am determined to use MonoRail on my new client and that client expects to be able to use WebForms, I have not choice but to make this work. After reading article after article on
Server.Transfer vs Response.Redirect vs Context.RewritePath and doing a lot of Reflectoring, I can say that I am pretty confident in what I cant. I initially tried Server.Transfer, but the fact that it terminates the current pipeline makes it very difficult, if not impossible to apply it within the
Controller.InternalSend facility. I finally came up with a solution that seems to work so far in a small use case. Unfortunately, it depends on the new ASP.NET 2.0 Server.Execute that can specify preserverForm.
1.1 will always preserverForm. I imagine I will let 1.1 WebFormsView behave as it does today. It is way to premature to test if it really works, but as I start building my App, I will know better. I will probably commit something within the next few days because it can't be worse than what happens know will postbacks and RenderViews as described in the documentation.
I do have 1 question for you. To avoid unecessary processing in the Controller during a PostBack, I want the controller to be able to determine if it is a PostBack. I will probably use the fragment you sent me, but I am wondering where to put it. My initial thought was to create a PageController off SmartDispatcherController, but I am worried about all the places the check for Controller and SmartDispatcherController. The main 2 are the ControllerMetaDescriptor and the WizardStepPage. I really want to be able to use your Wizard model. Do you think this will be a problem?
thanks,

You mean, RenderView? Yes, very trick. How are you planning dealing
with the PropertyBag? Session? If so, use the session available on the
IRailsEngineContext as this one can be changed.
