Posting here because I can't find a 'Contact' or 'Support' anywhere on this site..  if this forum is the only means of contact then how can I provide private details such as transaction ID's and such?  Maybe i'm missing something..

I saw pageblaster 2 on Snowcovered for $59. I then wanted research it a bit further so I came here, and saw it for $20 less. "Great!"..     I placed an order, and tried to pay by Paypal: Clicking the Paypal logo button took me nowhere. So then I grudgingly chose the credit card option because it seemed to work..       after entering in my info (which i almost -never- do on anything less than Amazon, but trusting this site since its a DNN core member), and hitting submit, it returns an Application Error.  

I needed to test this out today as we are having major performance problems on our site, so I went back to Snowcovered and paid the extra $..     I'm not too thrilled about having spent the time to register here and have both payment options fail..

Hi zymm,

Thanks for the feedback.  I'll check my cart right now. 

There is also a Promo going on at Snowcovered, so I hope you were able to get that, but I'll take care of any differences there.

Let me know if you run into any other trouble.

John

Thanks, I did get the promo discount so no worries.

My main issue after implementation: we are using an Ajax-based image rotater on the homepage of a child portal.  It is messing up because of pageblaster, so I tried adding it's tabid to the exlusion list.  This works when you type in the full URL such as www.domain.com/defaults.aspx?tabid=123.

The problem is I can't figure out how to exlude only the homepage, which is normally called only by the domain name.. www.domain.com .   I would guess that adding 'www.domain.com' to an exclude list would basically turn off pageblaster site-wide, since the root domain would always be included..

I've still been meaning to crack open my 'Beginning Regex' book, is there a way I can specify that "If, and only If the URL = the exacty root domain", then, turn off pageblaster?

thanks

Ok, this did not take a lot of research.

path pattern=(?!\bwww.domain.com\b)


seems to work.   I -think- this just isolates the root homepage, maybe you can confirm?

Hey excellent work, I like that regex.

I had another customer with problems on an Ajax based rotator like you describe. The reason it fails with PageBlaster is because the module he has is calling the main default.aspx page with ajax every few seconds. Having dynamic content like that and caching pages do not really mix, but I'm going to include a function in PageBlaster that will allow rotating your content like that without the taking performance hit of calling the page over and over.

Thanks for posting your resolution.

Hmm that Regex is not working right - it seems all the pages on my child portal, based on that domain name, are being excluded now.

I thought the /b indicates an end-of-word boundary, but I guess it also needs a negative look-ahead rule to see if there are any further characters after the domain name root?     Regex makes my head hurt.

For anyone elses info, we solved the problem, the solution:

path pattern="(domain\.com/default\.aspx$)" excludeFrom="All"

Thanks for posting that zymm.

Yes we had to use a dollar sign on the end of the string to specifiy not to look any further, and even though the Url just has the domain.com part it in, the pageBlaster code is seeing it after IIS has appended default.aspx (the default document).
