query string

[Guest]

hell

I've an ASP.Net page that, by the action of one submit button, redirects from one Web form to another passin
in the query string one value that will be processed in the later web form
So far so good

My question derives from the fact that, because I'm using portuguese keyboard layout and language, some special characters cannot be passed on the query string unless I escape them..

To eliminate this, on the onclick event of the button I've an instruction that redirects to another page passing the valu
escaped using the function escape of javascript
But when in ASP.Net code behind I try to access that key whose value whas escaped those special characters disappear

Example: imagine that my button has something like this... onClick="window.location='home.aspx?key=diário'
when in code behind of home.aspx i try to access my key using request.querystring.get("key") the value returned omits the thir
character wich is a portuguese special character..

can you help me here?!?
best regards

Try using Server.UrlDecode(Request.QueryString["key"]) and see if that helps.
