odd behaviour with # in uri

Hi,   I have an irule performing various redirects. However, we've found that if the uri contains a after a / it matches a rule we don't want it to. For example:   https://www.company.coom/fin...
application delivery
devops

"" is a fragment identifier that is supposed to be processed on the client side only. The [HTTP::uri] on the server side does the right thing by ignoring it as part of the URI when matching. But there seems inconsistency here, as the fragment also gets appended when "HTTP::respond 301 Locatin" is called, as part of URI.

 

You can probably get at "" from the request header by calling HTTP::request and then parsing it.
