Hi VFB,

 

could it be that you wanna parse the HOST-header for a given site name and then apply some redirects based on the a given URI? If so then this code would do the trick...

 

when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    switch -exact -- [string tolower [HTTP::host]] "www.yahoo.com" {
        switch -exact -- [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] "/news" - "/weather" {
            HTTP::redirect "https://www.yahoo.com/login.aspx=0"
        } default {
            do nothing
        }   
    } "www.google.com" {
        switch -exact -- [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] "/news" - "/weather" {
            HTTP::redirect "https://www.google.com/login.aspx=0"
        } default {
            do nothing
        }
    } default {
         do nothing
    }
}

BTW: If not, then elaborate some additional details on the "header" you want to parse.

 

Cheers, Kai
