Url rewrite for subdomain as Username


first of all i do not have enough experience with Url rewriting in asp.net. Anyways i pulled url rewriting thanks to SO and other helpful articles over internet. But this new project have a specific need, i have to show Url for different users as:

username.domainname.topdomain

further more every action for user specific pages should work like this i.e. for user profile.aspx page instead of :

domain.topdomain/username/profile.aspx

we want:

username.domainname.topdomain/profile/

how can i pull this out?
Regards
P.S. the request can have "N" number of querystrings ,so anything in web.config or so will be too complex to handle.

The HttpContext class in Asp.Net will not help you with this one. The rewriter methods on that are intended to cover the path and query string, not the hostname or port.
I believe you will need to use a client-side re-write in order to change the hostname: send some script to the client to reload from a different location.

As others have said, you will need to have some wildcard DNS setup to allow your username.domain.tld hostnames resolve to your web server.

        string strChar = chars.GetValue(i).ToString();
        if (strTitle.Contains(strChar))
