NameValueCollection

[David]

Hi all,

I am developing a CMS with URL Rewriting. This however hides my valid
Request.QuerySt ring values, which returns the underlying one that is used by
the ReWriting.

However, I have a plan... I am putting the string (which I can easily get
to) into HttpContext.Cur rent.Item["MyQueryStr ing"] which I then return
later. This sort of works, but I want to be able to use it like the
querystring...

So, if I then put it into a NameValueCollec tion like QueryString is, then I
want to be able to get at it like you would do with Request.QuerySt ring.

My QueryString is within my Page class (My regular pages inherit from my
Page Class). So, I return it as something like...

string MyVal = Page.QueryStrin g

However, this returns System.Collecti ons.Specialized .NameValueColle ction

If I was to do MyVal = Request.QuerySt ring, I get the list of querystring
collection rather than the type.

How can I get it to return my collection?


notes...
If I put ?dave=abc123 in my querystring, then when I do...

string MyVal = Page.QueryStrin g["dave"];

I do get the value... abc123

RE: NameValueCollec tion

You would probably need to override the ToString method (or provide your own
method) of the NVC to concatenate the names and values appropriately and
return the resultant "querystrin g", e.g. ?name=value&nam e2=value2 etc.

Re: NameValueCollec tion

Thanks... I will look into it.

I am not sure where to start... would it be something along the lines of...

Create a new class that inherits from NameValueCollec tion

then the ToString() is overridden


something like...

public class MyNVC : NameValueCollec tion
{
protected override string ToString()
{
return MyConcatenatedS tring;
}
}


Would I then be able to just do Page.QueryStrin g and it will automagically
return the complete string?
