Visual Studio .NET - Encode URL in asp net 2 0

Hi all,

I was wondering how do i encode the URL in asp.net does it need any decoding again coz the flow of the aspx pages depends on the Qery strings sent. Thanks in advance. All help is great help.

--RAdhika.

string str="Cat&Dog";
			Response.Redirect("WebForm1.aspx?str="+Server.UrlEncode(str));

In webForm1, you can access Cat&Dog as 

Response.Write(Server.UrlDecode(Request.QueryString["str"]));

Hi Radhika,

You can use the HttpUtility.UrlEncode to encode your query string, as follows:

Dim query As String = "City=" & _
         HttpUtility.UrlEncode(txtCity.Text)
   query += "&Hotel=" & _
         HttpUtility.UrlEncode(txtHotel.Text)
   query += "&Date=" & _
         HttpUtility.UrlEncode(txtDate.Text)
   query += "&NumberDays=" & _
         HttpUtility.UrlEncode(txtNumberDays.Text)
   Response.Redirect("Reservation1.aspx?" + query)

Hope this helps.
