I have a web site that runs both classic ASP and ASP.NET Webforms. The sessions for each are separate.
I need to hit some asp page whenever a request is made on the ASP.NET pages.
Why? Because I need to extend the ASP's session so it doesn't expire.
I know this is going to cause a number of issues and I really really don't want to do this, but the decision is not in my hands, unfortunately.
Is there any way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?
Put a .asp page inside an iframe on the asp.net page? Just clarifying here... You don't need to make the iframe visible. 0px or whatever you want. But load it in the src= attribute.
Have a link to a do nothing ASP script file in the ASPX page? Or look at something like this.
Update- as you say you don't have master pages or anything like that. You could use an HttpModule to inject the extra HTML required to make the request to the classic ASP page. See here for an article on how to do that, or look at the code for this one. Creating one for your needs wouldn't be difficult. Find where you want to insert it and inject the extra HTML.
This might be a half cocked idea, but maybe on certain pages do a redirect to an asp page, then that page just redirects back to the calling asp.net page, I mean it all depends on what pages do what, but you can see where I am headed with this
Add a img tag to the page that targets one of the asp-pages in the application. Add a CSS class to the image that hides it and put something random or the current date in the query string so that it doesn't get cached, just to be on the safe side.
