.NET Forum / ASP.NET / General / April 2008Url and querystring reading
I have an asp.net page that sends a querystring to a new web page (see full url below). The querystring takes a filename as one of the parameters. The problem I am having is when the filename contains a "&" then when I read the querystring it doesn't read past the embedded "&". Any way around this? Thanks. David http://server/Fileroom/frmSubfolder.aspx?fn=90216&seq=9&sname=Quarles%20&%20Brady%20(Misc./No%20File%20#) The value in the sname querystring is "Quarles & Brady (Misc./No File #)" I haven't had to do this since I wrote classic asp... When I had this problem back then I wrote my own little encoder and decoder, which is really simple if you think you'll only have a problem with that one little bitty character. Something like: myStr = myStr.replace("&", "$A$M$P") Then on the next page: myStr = Request("fileName").ToString.Replace("$A$M$P", "&") Or you could use the encrypter and decrypter. I haven't used that, but it looks like there is some good info here: http://www.devcity.net/Articles/47/1/encrypt_querystring.aspx http://forums.asp.net/t/989552.aspx Check out this article concerning URLEncode: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/QueryString.aspx David Wier http://aspnet101.com http://iWritePro.com - One click PDF, convert .doc/.rtf/.txt to HTML with no bloated markup >I have an asp.net page that sends a querystring to a new web page (see full >url below).

Thank you all. I knew there had to be a simple solution. David >I have an asp.net page that sends a querystring to a new web page (see full >url below).
