    How do I create a node with a file etxension?

    Hello all,

    I want to create a node with an .aspx extension. For example: Home/Support/MyPage.aspx.
    Whenever a create a node with a name like this, the node name shows the dot, but the URL always strips the dot. For example, the above URL would be /Support/MyPageaspx (note, no dot).

    Is it possible to have dots or file extensions in node names?

    I've just started working on this existing Umbraco intallation that I didn't set up, so I'm not sure if the issue I'm seeing is due to a setting someone else may have set, if I'm doing something wrong, or if it's just not possible.

    Thanks,
    Ben

    @Ben, by default, the .aspx extension will append itself to any node you create... you mention that you are working on an existing umbraco install...

    with wildcard mapping and enabling directory urls, you can have urls without the aspx but the .aspx extension at the end will still work.

    no reason to put the .aspx in the nodename in either case. actually, the extension SHOULD not be in the nodename.

    let me know if this helps...

    bootnumlock,

    I didn't realize that I could append .aspx onto any URL and it would still work.

    That solves my problem, thank you!
