how do I make ASPX Web pages without file extensions?

asp.net, url

Solution

The URLs aren't actually pointing to files. They're using URL rewrite rules to convert the URL to a database query and feed the output back to a specified page (whose URL isn't displayed).

Edit: For clarification SO uses MVC, so the url is pointing to a specific controller action (with or without parameters, depending on the page). The action runs some code to grab data or whatever and passes it to a corresponding view, which is basically an html template that fills in the info provided by the action and renders the page.
