Multiparameter Querystring Problem

Kurt Stricker

8/20/2002 4:13:00 AM

Using Mobile Toolkit 1.0 and the following code:

Dim xy As New MobileControls.MobileListItem()
xy.Text = oCont.PersonName & " (" &
oCont.Descriptions(0).Text & ")"
xy.Value = "ContDetails.aspx?BusinessKey=" &
Request.QueryString("BusinessKey") & "&CNum=" & iNum
List1.Items.Add(xy)

Page cannot be displayed in two of the Nokia emulators but
works in IE. If I comment out the &CNum it works fine.
Is there a problem using more than one value in a query
string to mobile devices?

I saw another post elsewhere about this. Have no idea if that's a problem
in phones, but one thing you should always do is Server.URLEncode your URL
values (I believe that's the correct method and it's on Server). So put
that around your Request.Querystring() and iNum strings in your assignment
of xy.value

IE used to be very forgiving with URL's and special characters.

Otherwise, could be a problem in the phones.

I left off the URLEncode as it didn't work with that
either. I did some more testing and it is not a length of
Querystring issue. The & character is absolutely causing
the problem here. Any ideas???

Any idea what the answer

I have experienced the same thing. One queryparameter is OK, adding a second
one is casuing problems (took me a while to find this reason for my problems
...)

PS: My cellphone (Sony CMD-Z5) also seemed to have a problem with one than
one parameter...

I believe the problem is that WML content is XML so & needs to be encoded in
XML way. In this case, & needs to be encoded as &amp; when building query
string for links in XML content. A note is that you may need to do it in
device specific way so the encoding is applied only to WML devices.

Thanks,
Frank
