Thanks for the quick response, Aaron! I appreciate it.

 

 

Are you saying that the irule you proposed would not be subject to the XSS vulnerability you described?

 

 

Also, I know that only a small percentage of HTTP requests as they come in are going to a non-existent page and will be getting the 404 response.

Thanks, again.
