Forwarding manipulated URI

["Chawke, Nitin (Corporate, consultant)" <ni...@ge.com>]

Hi All,
I am using mod_perl's PerlTransHandler for manipulating the request URI.
And forwarding the manipulated URI. I am getting the desired result page in the response, but the browser url does not change to the redirected page. But if I do a request redirect after manipulating the URI, the chagned uri does show up in the browser. Is there any way I would manipulate the URI, get the response with the manipulated URI, change the browser URL without actually redirecting the request.

This is the code that I am using:
			$r->uri($new_uri);
			$r->headers_out->add('Location' => ($new_uri)); 
			
			return Apache2::Const::REDIRECT;

This solves the purpose.

But I want to use something similar to below (this shows the page but the browser URL shows the old uri and not the manipulated):
			$r->uri($new_uri);
			$r->headers_out->add('Location' => ($new_uri)); 
			
			return Apache2::Const::REDIRECT;


Any inputs are appreciated.

Thanks,
Nitin

I don't see any diferences in the tow ways you are showing. :)
But no, there is no way to change the browser url without redirecting 
the request.
