passing parameter from hyperlink with spaces 1

[fegdvbna22]

What do you do when you have for example a page that you are passing a parameter to from a hyperlink which has spaces in the text? I am clicking on a hyperlink 'Opps 90', and this value must be passed to the next page, and then passed back if they press the Back button on this page. But it is read as 'OppsType=Opps%2090' when I click through, and not 'OppsType=Opps 90.

Right.
The %20 is the space.

When you do Request.QueryString("OppsType"), it should turn back into the regular string, or you can wrap it in a Server.UrlDecode(Request.QueryString("OppsType")), which I think will give you the same thing

Try looking at the HTMLEncode and HTMLDecode methods
