Hi guys,

I'm running into an issue where my AutoCompleteExtender stops working
as soon as I make changes to my global.asax file for URL rewriting. I
just want to take a URL http://www.sample.com/file1234.aspx and pass
it to asp.net engine as http://www.sample.com/parse.aspx?id=1234 which
works great. Except some components of AJAX Toolkit stopped working
ex. AutoCompleteExtender as soon as I do the URL rewrite.

This is what I have in my global.asax

HttpContext incoming = HttpContext.Current;
string oldPath = incoming.Request.Path.ToLower();
string newPath = string.Empty;

I check the oldPath and parse the information that I need and assign
it to newPath and post for processing

incoming.RewritePath(newPath);

As soon as I remove global.asax from the site, my AutoCompleteExtender
starts working again. Any idea?

Thank you
Maz

MazBTW, all you have to do to make AutoCompleteExtender stop working is
Click to expand...
to add

protected void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
HttpContext incoming = HttpContext.Current;
string oldPath = incoming.Request.Path;
incoming.RewritePath(oldPath);
}
to Global.asax file. Anyone knows why?


Thx
