Regex on URL rewrite module

Question

I need a help with Regex on URL rewrite module.

I want to apply a rule for the home page.

I tried with ^default.aspx, which is working fine when user access the site with /default.aspx

But normally users are accessing the site with / (www.website.com/) so I am trying to write the reqex and not able to find the correct one.

I tried lot of different combination but nothing worked so far.

^(/default.aspx|$|/$)
^(|/|/default.aspx)

Thanks for the help

Thanks I removed the ^, but still it is not working. By not working I mean, the rule is applied for other pages also. like www.website.com/aboutus.aspx this page also not got the rule applied. I want the rule only for home page. Thanks — Tippu

Thanks for the comments. As I mentioned my requirement is to apply the rule for homepage alone. — Tippu

You could use the following pattern:

^(/|default.aspx)?$

It will match /, default.aspx or nothing
