    <p>I've found a limitation in the routing mechanism for ASP.Net mvc and I'm trying to find a workaround.</p> <p>I posted a related question <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/942593/issue-when-trying-to-route-a-path-that-ends-with-a">here</a> about the issue I was having. </p> <p>The gist of the problem is that routes that end with a . (period) are never handled by the default routing mechanism. A "Resource Cannot Be Found" error is always thrown. For example it cannot handle these urls:</p> <pre><code>http://www.wikipediamaze.com/wiki/Washington,_D.C. http://www.wikipediamaze.com/wiki/anythingendinglikethis. </code></pre> <p>if I change it to querystring parameter like this it works fine:</p> <pre><code>http://www.wikipediamaze.com/wiki/?topic=Washington,_D.C. </code></pre> <p>I'm trying to find an extensibility point in the routing mechanism that will help me resolve this issue. I've tried other solutions like this:</p> <pre><code>//Global.asax.cs protected void Application_Error() { var url = HttpContext.Current.Request.RawUrl; if(TopicRegex.IsMatch(url)) { var fixedUrl = FixUrlPath(url); //This throws an error Response.Redirect(fixedUrl); //This also throws an error Server.Transfer(fixedUrl ); } } </code></pre> <p>I'm guessing that the Response.Redirect and Server.Transfer throw errors because in MVC you should be calling the RedirectToAction methods from the controller. Of course I <em>can't even get</em> to the controller.</p> <p>This seems to be a pretty big limitation considering the Apache server that Wikipedia uses handles this just fine. try it out <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington,_D.C." rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington,_D.C.</a> If anyone could please offer some help here I would appreciate it.</p>

    1. COTrying it out myself, I'm seeing periods being passed in without any problem. Could you post an example of the routes you're defining and the controllers they map to?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
