title: Where do I put the dll when I've compiled a httphandler into a class?
body: <p>I have a httphandler that I got from msdn, looks this way </p>
  
  <pre><code>using System.Web;
  public class HelloWorldHandler : IHttpHandler
  {
      public HelloWorldHandler()
      {
      }
      public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
      {
          HttpRequest Request = context.Request;
          HttpResponse Response = context.Response;
          // This handler is called whenever a file ending 
          // in .sample is requested. A file with that extension
          // does not need to exist.
          Response.Write("hello"); 
  
  
      }
      public bool IsReusable
      {
          // To enable pooling, return true here.
          // This keeps the handler in memory.
          get { return false; }
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So I compiled it to <code>Handler.dll</code> and put it in <code>C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Handler</code></p>
  
  <p>I then added this Web.config file </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;configuration&gt;
    &lt;system.web&gt;
      &lt;httpHandlers&gt;
        &lt;add verb="*" path="*.abc" 
          type="HelloWorldHandler", "HelloWorldHandler" /&gt;
      &lt;/httpHandlers&gt;
    &lt;/system.web&gt;
  &lt;/configuration&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and put it in <code>C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Handler</code> also </p>

  <p>I thought with this then I could go to <code>http://localhost/Handler/page.abc</code> and the handler would intercept the request, but this doesn't go this way? I suspect it is maybe the .config file? Please help. </p>
