HttpServerUtility.UrlPathEncode Method

public String UrlPathEncode (
	String s
)

public function UrlPathEncode (
	s : String
) : String

Not applicable.

Parameters

s

The text to URL-encode.

Return Value

URL encoding ensures that all browsers will correctly transmit text in URL strings. Characters such as a question mark (?), ampersand (&), slash mark (/), and spaces might be truncated or corrupted by some browsers. As a result, these characters must be encoded in <a> tags or in query strings where the strings can be re-sent by a browser in a request string.

UrlPathEncode is a convenient way to access the HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode method at run time from an ASP.NET application. Internally, UrlPathEncode uses HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode to encode strings.

The following example URL-encodes a string and then sends it to a browser client. In this example, the string MyURL is encoded as "http%3a%2f%2fwww.contoso.com%2farticles.aspx?title = ASP.NET Examples".

String myURL;
myURL = "http://www.contoso.com/articles.aspx?title = ASP.NET Examples";
get_Response().Write(("<A HREF = " + get_Server().UrlPathEncode(myURL)
    + "> ASP.NET Examples <br>"));

var myURL : String
myURL = "http://www.contoso.com/articles.aspx?title = ASP.NET Examples"

Response.Write( "<A HREF = " + Server.UrlPathEncode(myURL) + "> ASP.NET Examples <br>")
