Do an HTTP 307 redirect

For technical reasons we need to perform an HTTP 307 redirect instead of a 302.

For 302’s I’d do:

HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(url)

For 301’s I do:

HttpContext.Current.Response.RedirectPermanent(url)

How would I implement a 307?

Method 1

Solved this by adding a location header and doing redirect manually:

                    HttpContext.Current.Response.StatusCode = 307;
                    HttpContext.Current.Response.StatusDescription = "Temporary Redirect";
                    HttpContext.Current.Response.AddHeader("Location", redirectURL);
                    HttpContext.Current.Response.End();

Method 2

In the page you want to cause a 307, instead of Response.Redirect use Server.Transfer: –

Server.Transfer("targetpage.aspx");

Then in Page_Load of your target page, add the following (smiley face optional): –

Response.StatusCode = 307;
Response.StatusDescription = "Temporary Redirect :)";

When you view the network trace in your browser’s debug tools, this will look like the source page returned a 307. Server.Transfer does not send a response to the browser, but instead immediately transfers control to the specified page.
