URL Encoding with c#

[mookie]

I am trying to build a url to access ms exchange, and some of the folder have spaces. I want the string

"BIS QA EDM Calendar"
to become
"BIS%20QA%20EDM%20Calendar"

I see Server.URLEncode(), but that convert spaces to a plus sign, not %20. Java has a nice URLEncoder class that works great. I suppose I could do string.replace to replace spaces with %20, but that leaves open other characters that need encoding. Thanks

Tim

Did you look at HttpUtility.UrlEncode() ?

Use HttpUtility.HTMLEncode()

I hadn't checked that, but trying it yields the same results

BIS+QA+EDM+Calender

pluses, not the %20 I am looking for.

HTMLEncode didn't work either, but you got me looking at the HttpUtillity class, and HttpUtility.URLPathEncode works, thanks for your help.
