Querystring truncate string after "#"

Question

Updated

Looks like if folder name string contains "#" it is getting truncated in the querystring itself , i tried below but both gives me only Junli Zhuang instead of Junli Zhuang # Kangna Zeng

 Request.Url.Query
 Request.Querystring

Junli Zhuang # Kangna Zeng

Resolved -

I have query string which looks like below -

code=VST5ic61HC2UhAFGBLCzp0OF5x3V4WLZMdjRH%2blY1iKVhBeHE9qwI8X%2bPGQ1fYlg0eW3VHhLu9tvUqrInf8hHQffk%2fr7IShrs70DM5ManybKon%2bjz5RTzx8vl10Yo5ahimFoecxA%2b8DAWOPUvlt%2blsDy1WXU0Yfft6ENeG%2bmX27Kj80BOfMR7J0x5oWpNXfWjj1RRPXNkFXOpPn3dfaSIMWb%2fbdN%2fjmwj5APwsw5uRA%3d&ow=False&fp=%2f4.+Junli+Zhuang+&+Kangna+Zeng

I am reading the value of "fp" like below -
 string uploadDirectoryStructure = context.Request.QueryString["fp"].ToString()

it gives me - 4. Junli Zhuang 

but if you look at querystring it should give me - 4. Junli Zhuang & Kangna Zeng

I tried using like this but it did not help -

 string uploadDirectoryStructure = HttpUtility.UrlEncode(context.Request.QueryString["fp"].ToString())

Please suggest.

Your input query string is incorrect. The symbol & should be URL encoded to %26. Otherwise it indicates the next pair in the query string.

Do you have control of the application that is generating the query string? If it is generated on a web page, you can use encodeURIComponent() on it like so via javascript that will encode the & symbol.

encodeURIComponent("Junli+Zhuang+&+Kangna+Zen");

Otherwise, if it is out of your control, then you can use Request.Url.Query in your controller action, and the process the string manually to get everything after fp

 var startSegment = "&fp";
 var result = Request.Url.Query.Substring(myString.IndexOf(startSegment) + startSegment.Length);
