Actually, I'm doing some similar things in CF, although not to redirect 'host.name' to 'www.host.name'. For non-CF content you can use a combination of IIS's error handling templates and either CF or ASP, but it gets fairly complicated and is easily broken by configuration changes. I'm sure using an ISAP plugin and it doing at the server level is also much more efficient than using CF.
For the SSL, yes, I've tried using IIS capabilities, but haven't really been able to do what I want. I believe it can be done by a rewriter, but I'll have to see what Dave's recommendation can do. I think you can use a regex to tell it that anything requested using https:// and not under, say, '/myaccount/' would be redirected to http://. If I have an SSL cert attached to a web site I always find it difficult making sure that any links leaving the secure area do not use SSL. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Wright" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> Sent: Wednesday, March 01, 2006 3:08 PM Subject: Re: OT: IIS URL rewriter? > Not having used a URL rewriter, I may be off here, but is it going to > solve either one of your issues?
