Abstract: A system and method for client-side URL rewriting. In one embodiment the method comprises a client sending a request for content to a client proxy, wherein the request for content comprises a first URL. The client proxy may then rewrite the first URL and redirect the request for content to a reverse proxy server. In such an embodiment, the request for content may be sent to the client proxy based on a proxy configuration of the client. In a further aspect of the method above, rewriting the first URL with the client-side URL rewriter may comprise rewriting the request for content to a second URL, and including an indication of the first URL in the rewritten request for content. Furthermore, the first URL may correspond to an intranet server, while the second URL may correspond to the reverse proxy server.

Abstract: A system including a browser configured to generate a request to access a content server, a dynamic proxy dynamically downloaded onto the browser, and a plurality of proxy settings located on the browser and configured to be modified by the dynamic proxy, wherein the proxy settings are modified to redirect the request to the dynamic proxy.
