We have a few oddball edge cases where users are calling the site as:

http:/site.com

^^ notice the single /

this is causing havoc later on in the rewtiting process causing all sorts of weird side effects.

I currently have a rule that looks something like

#Force non devs to one domain
RewriteCond Host: (?!(?:localhost|site\.org|127\.0\.0\.1)).*
RewriteRule (.*) http://site.org$1 [RP]

to force all the vanity domans onto the primary non www domain.

Anyone got an idea how to also force everyone to the full // version of http:/ ?

The thing is that all browsers fix this issue automatically.

Anyway this is a protocol error and it occurs before IIS and ISAPI_Rewrite begin to operate.

surely it cant be ALL browsers since if that was the case i wouldn't be seeing it in my logs :P

Are I correct in saying that regardless we cant fix this? Can we recognize and at least redirect it to an error page?

- I can't think of a way you can recognize it with ISAPI_Rewrite as the error occurs earlier than ISAPI_Rewrite begins to operate...
