ASP.net skipping the special characters from the URL?

[Rahul Agarwal]

Hi All

We found that ASP.net is skipping the special characters passed in a URL

?context.Request.RawUrl
RawUrl:
"/iPower/GUI/DSHContactSearch.dset?@pvcClientName=&@pvcSurname=Røssland&@pvcFirstName=&@pvcErrMsg="

?context.Request.Item("@pvcSurname")
"Rssland"

The character 'ø' is missing from 'Røssland'

Please help
Thanks
Rahul

URLEncode your URL strings.

R%F8ssland, instead of Røssland

See http://www.albionresearch.com/misc/urlencode.php

You'll probably want to encode your URLs so you don't run into formatting
issues such as this.
You can use Server.URLEncode.

Hi Juan

Thanks for the reply.

Since context.Request.RawUrl is returning the special character, is it
possible to encode there and then use context.Request.item ?

Thanks
Rahul
