I have encountered a problem when certain European characters are included in
the Querystring of an URL.
If I have a URL like: ?param=AAÃ*
On the receiving page a simple Request() call returns "AA" and not "AAÃ*".
It drops all accented characters!
If I change to use a Form instead, it works OK.
If I copy the Request.QuerySt ring to a String variable and split it I manage
to get the proper value.
I have tried this on Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 with the same result.
Is this a known bug with Request.QuerySt ring? And if so is there a
fix/workaround??
Thanks

No issues on my end. Have you tried a different browser? Does it appear
right in a view-source? Have you tried URLEncoding it?

This is an ASP Request object problem. Different browser makes no difference.
Getting parameters on the server side behaves differently depending on how
the ASP page was requested.
It works as expected when a form is submitted, but if the page is requested
via URL then Request("<parm> ") doesn't return accented characters.

so, it's a browser problem. I'm not saying that this is the problem, but

This is certainly a server-side issue. If the URL for a page is ?parm=AAÃ*
and the ASP page did:
Response.Write( Request.QuerySt ring);
you get:
parm=AAÃ*
but if you did:
Response.Write( Request("parm") );
you get:
AA
but works fine if page invoke via a form (either post or get)

Actually, it's probablly a combination of both client and server issues. I
believe the problem is associated with the character encoding. Here are some
things to check:
1. In your browser, what character encoding are you using?
2. On the server, what codepage/character encoding are being used. There are
quite a few places where codepage can be set. Here's an excerpt from the
Response.CodePa ge documentation that describes how the codepage setting
cascades:
If Response.CodePa ge is not explicitly set in a page, it is implicitly set
by Session.CodePag e, if sessions are enabled. If sessions are not enabled,
Response.CodePa ge is set by @CodePage, if @CodePage is present in the page.
If there is no @CodePage in the page, Response.CodePa ge is set by the
AspCodePage metabase property. If the AspCodePage metabase property is not
set, or set to 0, Response.CodePa ge is set by the system ANSI codepage.
Here's a link to the documentation: http://www.msdn.microsoft.com/librar...om_resopcp.asp
Thanks for your informative reply.
Initially the ASP pages had a charset of windows-1252 and the
Session.CodePag e was 65001. I then went and changed all pages to use charset
UTF-8, but the problem still persisted.
I have also tried saving the ASP pages in UTF-8 format instead of the normal
ANSI encoding, but this also had no affect.
The work-around I had to come up with was create a function that would parse
the QueryString and return the requested parameter.
Thanks
