Query strings and underscores

[tcstom]

Hi,

I'm using the System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString collection as part of a method but am getting some odd behaviour if any of the query string names contain an underscore. For example, if the URL is

contact.aspx?page=1&customise=true&keepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=400&width=650&refreshParent=true

then System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString.ToString() returns

"page=1&customise=true&keepThis=true&"

but if the underscore is removed from the URL as follows

contact.aspx?page=1&customise=true&keepThis=true&TBiframe=true&height=400&width=650&refreshParent=true

then System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString.ToString() returns

"page=1&customise=true&keepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=400&width=650&refreshParent=true"

Anyone know what that's about? I need the query string with the underscore in there because it's part of the Javascript library Jquery's thickbox functionality...

I can't replicate this behaviour in my tests. Please provide a complete .aspx and aspx.vb file that replicates the problem.

My apologies. It turns out that the Jquery script was manipulating the target URL, and because it was being displayed in a thickbox (

I couldn't see that the querystring had been changed before the page was even requested. Sorry for wasting your time.
