[Solved] Paging and special characters on URL.

[Fernandes]

Hi everyone!

In my site, you can make some queries against a database. After the search you're redirected to a searchResults.aspx and a querystring parameter is passed along with the search criteria.

I really need to have the "special" caracters not encoded, and it's working great.

The problem is that if I'm redirected to a result page with the following querystring param...

http://localhost:1504/wwwroot/searchResults.aspx?q=OiqfgWbKF+Cj00+gMYgbZ89dQs8C3h2FAKVvKAvzbNQmzlu5Oikn/19VPTUpq8MFl0okjNo1pKOPsM4ynr/DQg==


... the paging on the results Grid doesn't work anymore because it changes the special characters (for example: the equal sign "=" is encoded to "%3d")
to:

http://localhost:1504/wwwroot/searchResults.aspx?q=OiqfgWbKF+Cj00+gMYgbZ89dQs8C3h2FAKVvKAvzbNQmzlu5Oikn%2f19VPTUpq8MFl0okjNo1pKOPsM4ynr%2fDQg%3d%3d

Does anyone know how can I avoid this behaviour? I mean, can the paging mechanism keep my original URL without encoding it?

Thanks!

Hello Fernandes,

Did you try using Server.UrlDecode method to decode the querystring params?
