Ampersand in URI

[akhiln]

Hi,

I'm having an issue with ampersands in a URI string.

I'm trying to build a URI by:

string href = "www.something. com/?=" + var1 + "&" + var2;
webBrowser1.nav igate(new Uri (href));

But href ends up being www.something.c om/?=var1var2 without the ampersand.

What can I do to make this work?

Thanks.

That's odd... it's working just fine for me. Though I did have to put an "http://" in front of that url otherwise it would throw an exception when I tried to turn it into a Uri object.

            int var1 = 12;
            int var2 = 5;
            string href = "http://www.something.com/?=" + var1 + "&" + var2;

            Uri uri = new Uri(href);

            webBrowser1.Navigate(uri);

Well "www.something. com/?=var1&var2" is a bad format to begin with.
There is nothing to the left of the = sign.

You should have an "=" between the variable's name and a value for the variable followed. Each variable should be separated by an "&".

Your URI should look like:

"http://www.something.c om?var1=somethi ng&var2=somethi ng2"

Here is my actual code: I have the URL formatting right, the ampersand is just not showing up.

String[] split = data.Split(',');
String href = "http://www.something.com/test.php?reader=";
href += split[1].Trim();
href += "&";
href += "id=";
href += split[2].Trim();
webBrowser1.Navigate(new Uri(href));
StatusLabel.Text = href;

I just tried it:

string src="";
src += "http://www.something.com?";
src += "var1";
src += "=";
src += "something";
src += "&";
src+="var2";
src += "=";
src+="something2";

The "&" is placed in the string...

Your "StatusLabe l" variable, is it an ASP.NET Label or TextBox?
