Page redirection is a very popular approach on Web applications behavior, for example: count login errors and redirect user to an error page if login error count exceeds max allowed value – to prevent login hack attack.
The simplest way to do it in a ASP.NET application:
// Get URL of the error page to be redirected to
string urlErrorPage = getUrlErrorPage(…);
// Use Response.Redirect to redirect user to the error page
Response.Redirect(urlErrorPage, true);
The problem is, there are numerous add-ons for internet browsers to prevent redirection: like this, this and this.
One possibility to redirect mandatory is to write the content of target page in Response directly (the target page assumed to be plain HTML page):
// Use Response.Write to write error page content
string errorContent = "<html><head></head><body>error</body></html>";
string sFile = null;
try
{
sFile = Server.MapPath(urlErrorPage);
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(sFile))
{
errorContent = sr.ReadToEnd();
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
// Handle exception
}
finally
{
Response.Write(errorContent);
Response.End();
}
Once again: the target error page assumed to be (D)HTML page.
Enjoy!
