I usually try to figure things out myself but I've been working on this problem for over a week and I'm not making any headway :(.
I created an HTTP Module that detects the user's browser agent and redirects them if they are coming from a mobile browser. I'm using v2.0 in IIS integrated mode. I installed the DLL in the GAC and everything seems to work for the first 1000 or so requests but after that it suddenly stops working. I just can't seem to figure out why and I think I'm missing something basic in my C# knowledge. I would truly be grateful for any help I can get.
public class RedirectModule : System.Web.IHttpModule
{
private const string MobileUserAgent = "MobileUserAgentCacheKey";
private const string STRING_TO_FIND = "info/lps";
private const string STRING_TO_ADD = "/mobile";
public void Dispose()
{
//clean-up code here.
}
public void Init(HttpApplication context)
{
context.BeginRequest += context_BeginRequest;
}
private void context_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
HttpContext context = HttpContext.Current;
string url = context.Request.Url.ToString().ToLower();
if (!url.Contains(STRING_TO_FIND) || url.Contains(STRING_TO_FIND + STRING_TO_ADD))
return;
Logger.Current.Log("Starting Redirect Phase");
if (XmlToValues.IsMobile(context.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_USER_AGENT"],
GetCachedFile(context, "Settings.xml")))
{
var mobileRedirect = GetRedirectUrl(url, STRING_TO_FIND, STRING_TO_ADD);
if (mobileRedirect != null)
{
Logger.Current.Log("Redirect to Mobile page");
context.Response.Redirect(mobileRedirect);
}
}
Logger.Current.Log("Web Page");
Logger.Current.Log("End Begin Request");
}

return;

return url.Substring(0, idx) + strToAdd + url.Substring(idx);
}
