How do I route images through ASP.NET routing?

Question

I\'d like to create a dynamic thumbnail resizer so that you can use the following URL to get a resized image:

http://server/images/image.jpg?width=320&height         


        

Answer 1

Why not just use an action to do this? A controller's action can stream back an image. Otherwise, the typical way, say with ASPX, is that a handler or handler factory listens for the file extension and processes it accordingly. Or use URL rewriting to rewrite the URL in the request.
