Url Rewriter works as HttpModule for ASP.NET Web Applications. Redirections and rewrites are managed by rules created in a configuration file in plain text using Apache mod_rewrite syntax that is determined using regular expressions. When the request is made for the new friendly URL, Url Rewrite tries to find a match of the virtual URL against the rules and if successful, it redirects or rewrites the request to the orignal URL. Rewrites are made server-side so the users will never see again your complex and hackable URL. Unlike other existing URL rewriting process, Managed Fusion Url Rewrite is entirely masking the old URL so ASP.NET Form Postbacks are fully supported by this component and it uses the common Apache mod_rewrite syntax that is so popular with PHP, Cold Fusion, and Ruby.
