Procedure to Write Rules

The general procedure to write rules is:

• Identify the directories that contain the HTML pages whose content needs to be rewritten.

• In these directories, identify the pages that need to be rewritten.

• Identify the URLs that need to be rewritten on each page. An easy way identify most of the URLs is to search for "http" and "/".

• Identify the content type of the URL: HTML, JavaScript or XML.

• Write the rule required to rewrite each of these URLs by editing the required ruleset in the Rewriter service under Portal Server Configuration in the Access Manager administration console.

• Combine all the rules into a ruleset for that domain.
