ampersand in query string

[mycoupons]

I am trying to capture querystring value into a string variable. But only the part before ampersand gets captured not the ampersand and the rest.

c = Request.QuerySt ring["org"].Trim();

Hovering on ".QueryStri ng" shows me "org=ab&cd"

But "c" captures only part before ampersand , just "ab".

How do I make this work?

The MSDN shows how to do this.

can you please explain?

I need to capture the querystring value as it is because that is going to be my input parameter for a sql stored proc. But anything before ampersand is not being captured.

In query strings the "&" is used as a delimiter between variables.
So you would have:

"var1=something &var2=someth ing else&var3=..."

In your case you have an & in the middle of a string. When the server tries to retrieve the variables from the query string it's taking what ever comes after the "&" as a variable name and it's looking for the "="....

You cannot have an "&" your strings.

Instead you need to convert the "&" a "query string safe" value that represents the "&". Try using the ACII value instead of the actual "&" when creating your query string.
