I am facing an interesting problem while using the Regular Expression Named Matching Groups while implementing UrlRewriting. The problem is that I can't specify ?<Group Name> inside the XML tag due to < and > as being prohibited as being inside XML tag data, but they are part of my Reg X Named Capturing Group. I tried to replace < with &amp; but that lead me to replace & with amp;lt; which when written in the regular expresion inside LookFor XML tag doesn't simply work. The web.config file can't even be read. I don't want to write the whole UrlRewriting module by myself to tackle this problem and if this rule can only work with exisitng DNN UrlRewriter module will save a lot of time. Any suggestion. Can I declare the Named Regular Expression groups inside XML file LookFor tag?
