Thread: Space in URL?

I've found in the logs that somehow people are entering improper URLS.
Is there a way in the application I can replace a space with a dash?

This is the sort of URL:
s-47-office supplies.aspx

which results in a page not found

Do you have "office supplies" in the SEName of your products, variants, sections, etc.? You can look in the table and at your SEName fields for spaces and replace them with dashes.

Or are you saying that these are just typed in by customers or search results?

Tek7, I cannot replicate that here. What version are you on? Do you have modifications to the urlrewrite rules or any of the AspDotNetStorefront classes?

AspDotNetStorefront ML 8.0.1.2/8.0.1.2

I have a clean unmodified version and if I enter this:
s-7-bed bath.aspx

I get: The resource cannot be found.

If you have a section "bed bath", when someone view that in the front-end, our url engine will have to rewrite it as "s-7-bed-bath.aspx", the space will be replaced with dash as expected. And, if that's manually invoked you should also do it in the same format. If you want more than that, modify our urlrewrite logic.
