I'm having trouble creating a rewrite rule for the URL rewrite module because I'm attempting to rewrite a url from friendly to querystring.
I have a url like this:
domain.com/item/1234
i need to redirect this to:
domain.com/item?id=1234
If you're wondering why I need this its because I want to display friendly urls in third party sites and load the page with a querystring so I can change the parameters in the page without a postback using Javascript.
All of the documentation I have found show how to make a url friendly and not the other way around.
Thanks!

I have a WordPress site. which is now moving to asp.net cms (Sitefinity). In this process my url structures are getting changed but I want to keep the traffic of previous urls on the new urls as well.
Old as the domain will be transferred to new site old pages will not be found (404)
Things making it complicated.
Old and new site has lots of Dynamic urls
Old site has different urls structure than new url
I do not wan't to put all these urls in web.config file.
Solutions I tried
I tried to write 301 redirect on Robot.txt as I can capture old and new url at the time of migration
I searched for solutions all over net but didn't got any straight forward solutions
One of the forums mentioned that we should not write 301 redirects on Robot.txt
Don't know what to follow or where to search. Please guide me to correct path.
Thank You

If you have an identifiable pattern between the two using the URL rewrite module would be your best bet. Or write some code to insert the old urls as multiple URLs on the content items.
Do you have an example of the old URL and what the new URL will look like? It is possible that if you know how the URL pattern will change you can create a redirect rule in your web.config.
Also, Sitefinity allows you to create redirects as well. This includes creating alternative urls for pages or creating redirecting pages.
The exact solution really depends on how much the URL is changing and how many redirect urls are needed.
I have a website i.e. www.exhibitionsnow.com, it's URL structure is not good. I am new to ASP.NET. Can someone suggest the correct procedure to rewrite the URLs, and also what would be the code to apply a canonical URL.
URL Rewriting module EXISTS for IIS, it's very simple to use, if you don't need (I'm sure you don't) dynamic URL rewriting.

There is an article about URL Rewriting. You can simply apply this to your web site
I'm changing my URL structure from domain.com/postname to domain.com/type/postname
What's the best way to redirect? I tried using the Redirection plugin, but it seems that I need to redirect each URL manually. Is there any way to redirect all the posts at once?
Go to the wp-admin's dashboard using domain.com/wp-admin. Then look for the Settings-->Permalinks option. From this page you can change the URL settings for all of your posts.
Here are some instructions on how to redirect your sites url.
Changing the site url
Back up your site first if you still can? When I changed to pretty permalinks I had to include a forward slash to custom field images.

I have a page (shop) in my drupal 7 site. On this page is a php script requesting a webservice.
The response depends on the URL, eg. /shop/pid-1234/pink-shoes.html will show a product with id 1234.
I therefore need Drupal to load the /shop page no matter what the URL after shop/ looks like. How do I
achive this? I have tried using wildcards in the URL alias module ($,%) but that didn't work. I have also
looked at pathauto and redirect, but didn't seem like they could help.
Any suggestions?
You probably need an Apache mod_rewrite rule. You can add something to your .htaccess file if you're using one.
Is it possible (and if so how) to redirect the url from a forms get variables into something more url friendly using IIS 7's URL Rewrite module. An example would be
/Catalog/Search/Title=Something&Order=Price
into
/Catalog/Search/Title/Something/Order/Price
Yes it is, but you should dig into this article for how as there are some good details in it:
