OK then...I am trying to get this to work using the ISAPI dll that iismods.com has that is supposed to work like mod_rewrite for *nix

You download a .dll and a .ini and place them in a folder on your web server. Then you go to IIS config and go to the properties of the particular web site and then to the ISAPI filters tab. You name the filter and point to the location of the .dll that you uploaded.
Next you simply write your Rewrites to the uploaded .ini file using a text editor.

sounds pretty easy huh? You bet it does but using this method and then adding the code from this thread to my .ini the same as *nix would do in your htaccess file and it should work but I am getting no love from ISAPI filter.

I think that there are probably syntax differences in the rewrite code from the two different methods but in the examples it seems to be the same to my eyes (not a programmer). If anyone can help me out and please go to wwwiismods.com and take a peek at how this code should be written into the .ini file vs. how it is written in the htaccess files and give me a hint as to how to get this thing running I would sure appreciate it.

Thanks to all,

Well, I decided that enough was enough when it comes to Windows/IIS not being able to use all of the coolest mods so I went ahead and built a Red Hat 9 Linux Server and loaded CCP in a name based virtual directory, changed over from csv to MySQL for my db solution and everything is working great.
I added a mod_rewrite rule from this thread to my .htaccess for categories and it links properly using the  link code from this thread but when it goes to  , the cart shows up properly but the images are not there. I figure it is probably due to the fact that the rewrite rule that I used has /ccp51/blah/blah/blah/ in it and my site goes stright to the store so I removed the /ccp51/ section from the rewrite rule but I did not edit the regular expression section as I do not know how.

Here is the rule that I used: 

RewriteRule ^cp-app/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?$ cgi-bin/cp-app.pl?pg=$1&ref=$2 [L]

I used the link format   

but my site is not /webrootdir/ccp51/.../...  but rather the ccp51 is set to my webrootdir

Please help!

to ask it another way. when I click on my layout image blank areas (since the files could not be found) and look for the target, it is listed as



so my real question is where is cp-app/cat/images/   pointing as cat is not a real directory on my system?

I have tried symbolic links to send cat/images to my real images directory with no luck.
I could use a little help here please.

Where in ccp do you edit the code to change the cart product and category links.

(ex. I have rewritten my links to be seo friendly and they work great for hard coded links from my ste_layout. I need to rewrite ccp's built in links now.)
