How do I force the friendly URL conversion?
Hello,
I think you should be able to use your FriendlyUrlRewriteProvider. With that you can use the ConvertToInternal / ConvertToExternal (The default provider is in the EPiServer.Web namespace)
FriendlyUrlRewriteProvider provider = new FriendlyUrlRewriteProvider();
provider.ConvertToInternal(new UrlBuilder(theUrl));
FriendlyUrlRewriteProvider provider = new FriendlyUrlRewriteProvider();
provider.ConvertToInternal(new UrlBuilder(theUrl));
or
provider.ConvertToExternal(...);
Warning though.. I haven't used these myself so I might be way off. But looks like that is the way. Mayeb I have time to look at it mor later if im wrong.

Thanks, Johan, but I don't really want to feed it individual links. I'd rather give it a big string and have it find the links and correct them all, like it must do at some point in the page lifecycle.

I know there is some process which rewrites all the HREFs in content to the friendly URL. So, at some point in the page lifecycle, internal links go from...
/Templates/Public/Page.aspx?id=163&epslanguage=en
to...
/my/friendly/url
Where does this process happen, and can it be forced? I have some content that (for a very odd, but domain-specific reason) I am generating as a string in in a handler (.ashx). So, this content is not going through this "filter," and the links aren't being converted.
Is there some way to force this link conversion? On a raw string, preferably?
