convert from unicode to ascii (hebrew)

[z. f.]

Hi,

i need to convert a unicode string to ascii string (in order to put it in
HTML page url )
right now the string gets to the page, but when the url clicked (with the
unicode string in a query string parameter) - the page gets to its
destination but showing יפור ×�הבה בלתי × ×©×›×—" as the value
it got from the url.
so i need probably to convert it to ascii, but how?

TIA, z.

In .NET, strings are *always* Unicode.
right now the string gets to the page, but when the url clicked (with the
unicode string in a query string parameter) - the page gets to its
destination but showing ×=3Fפ×=3Fר ×�×=3F×=3F×=3F ×=3F×=3Fת×=3F × ×©×=3F×=3F" as the value
it got from the url.

You need to find out *exactly* what the problem is first. See

it managed to work out by changing the content-type header of the aspx/HTML
page as following:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1255">
