I have a URL as: http://localhost:52893/books/viewmore?query=RecommendedTitles&subject=Mystery & Detective&slp=1 and i need to get subject as "Mystery & Detective" by using Request.Querystring["Subject"] in c#. since the Subject is containg "&" sybmol, the output on using Request.Querystring["Subject"] is "Mystery " alone. What should i do to get the proper value using Request.Querystring["Subject"]?

You need to use Server.URLEncode and URLDecode Before redirecting Respose.Redirect(  http://localhost:52893/books/viewmore?query=RecommendedTitles&subject=  & Server.URLEncode(  Mystery & Detective ) ) and then you can use myLabel.Text = Server.URLDecode( request.QueryString[ Subject ] )
