Dear all,

i have to send a url with some parameters to a another website through my web app. How can i avoid the '&amp
' and ';' in my url(because the other app gives a error with &amp
and is out of my control).

i tryid : Server.DecodeUrl en Server.EncodeUrl, bud it does not work.
Im using
Response.Redirect(url)
to pass the url. In my side looks the url something like this:

https://pay.bank.nl/internetbank/SesamLoginServlet?sessie=id&trid=002&rand=2180fe5a3ff1c3b5

So no &amp
. Bud on the other side you will see &amp
instead of &
How can i avoid this?

Thanks

Hi,

don't know if I get you right. How does the url look like when you put it into Response.Redirect? Does it have & within?

Hi Sebastian,

In my side it has only &. bud ofter redirect, on the other side it has &amp and that's not good, they accept only &

SeMartens2-Sep-09 22:24

That is because the & are encoded. Did you use any UrlEncode before?

Yes i did and also checked, it had no & . bud ofter passing it to the other page, you will see &amp

Okay, then could you post your code? First I would try to out just the string in the Response.Redirect (hardcoded). If this works then the problem is when you create the string. If not, the problem is REsponse.Redirect.

But let us take a look at your code.

Hi Semartens,

Thanks for replay.
Here is my code:

string url = issuerAuthenticationURL.Text;
            string url2 = Server.UrlDecode(url);
            //lblurl.Text = url2;
            Response.Redirect(url2);

When copy and paste the url2, it works fine, bud if i do Response.Redirect(url2) then it goes wrong.

1. Why do you Decode the Url? Don't you have to encode?
2. What if you just pass url, not url2?
3. Does your Url contains & or just & ?

Thanks SerMartens and others, the issue is solved by using the
Server.HtmlDecode instead of urldecode

Hi,You can use as many Web.config for individual folders to which u want to set different access permissions.
But the root level web.config should be unique to govern ur web site.

Hi
You can user the Request.UrlReferrer property to check the page that refereed to the current page.

Using this property for the Referrer URL you can build your own Analytics

Value in Request.UrlReferrer.ToString will be null if the page is opened directly.

Try using the below example

Create Page Default2.aspx

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (Request.UrlReferrer != null)
        {
            string strref = Request.UrlReferrer.ToString();
        }
        Response.Write("<a href='default3.aspx'>Link</a>");
    }

Create Page Default3.aspx

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (Request.UrlReferrer != null)
        {
            Response.Write(Request.UrlReferrer.ToString());
        }
    }

You will get the Value in the 'UrlReferrer' Property
