isapi

I am trying to streamline my MVC application and deleting as much as possible . Can someone explain to me what this code below does in the web.config file in the root of the application.

Furthermore, even if or when the HTTP RFC is updated, there still will be the issue of

I've found an issue with ASP.NET that I know at least has stumped one other person out there. We were trying to use an HttpModule to handle wildcard requests to a web application.

Has anyone else ran into this and found a way around this limit? Query string parameters are not an option. Thanks, Greg Ballard This is a known issue with aspnet
