Hi,

I have some pages (tabs) with German "Umlauts" in the title, and Friendly Url Settings are activated. Therefore, such an Url looks like

http://intranet/Personalentwicklung/BroschürenundLeitfäden.aspx

When I click on Module Settings on an module on such a page, a yellow screen of death appears saying:

A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (%).

The Url looks like

http://intranet/Personalentwicklung/Brosch%25C3%25BCrenundLeitf%25C3%25A4den/tabid/1274/ctl/Module/ModuleId/1836/Default.aspx?popUp=true

When I turn off Friendly Url Settings, everything works fine.

Can anyone tell me what rules I have to add in the Friendly Url Settings to replace German Umlauts as ä,ö,ü,A,Ö,Ü with some replacement as a,o,u,A,O,U?

Best wishes
Michael

Cathal,

I fear my knowledge is a bit lousy in this. Can you give me a recipe how to do that?

Best wishes

Cathal,

after investigating some forums, I found out that the problem is solved by changing the attribute includePageName to false in the following line of web.config:

< add name="DNNFriendlyUrl" type="DotNetNuke.Services.Url.FriendlyUrl.DNNFriendlyUrlProvider, DotNetNuke.HttpModules" includePageName="true" regexMatch="[^a-zA-Z0-9 _-]" urlFormat="humanfriendly" / >

The Url still shows the tabname (..../BroschürenundLeitfäden.aspx), but now there is no error in the popup anymore.

Does this have some side effects that are better to avoid?

Best wishes
Michael
