In the declaritive side of HTMLPlaceHolder I can set the SourceURL as any string and it accepts it. But from code I have to directly supply a system.URI object.
The problem for me is if I want to assign for example "http://telerik.com/page1.aspx?ID=net%2b2009" to the SourceURL. When I construct a system.URI from that string it removes the %2b encoding and replaces it with the unescaped +.
Whether this is correct or not, and whether + should be encoded as part of a querystring becomes immaterial when the source we are trying to load requires it.
It would be much easier if we could assign a string to the SourceURL property.

Hi James,
Thank you for this suggestion - for the moment we will not change the property type. If there are other users complaining about that - we will provide an alternative way of setting this. If you need help with implementing a solution with the current binaries - please let us know.
Kind regards,

Help would be great.
We tried today to use binding instead of setting the property directly in code, unfortunately this still leads to the string http://telerik.com/page1.aspx?ID=net%2b2009 being changed to http://telerik.com/page1.aspx?ID=net+2009 which was a very disappointing moment.
It seems the only way we can get the string to retain the escaping we desire is to set it declaratively, which doesn't work for us, because we need to be able to change it on the fly.
As you can see here I can no longer create a URI where I control the escaping:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9zh9wcb3.aspx
That constructor is now obsolete.
Any other ideas?

You can use this code:
RadHtmlPlaceholder1.HtmlPresenter.Children[0].SetProperty("src", "http://telerik.com/page1.aspx?ID=net%2b2009 ");

Thanks, that works for us. Problem solved.
However it would be a lot easier and less confusing if we could set the string directly...
