[Visual Basic] Public ReadOnly Property QueryString As NameValueCollection [C#] public NameValueCollection QueryString {get;} [C++] public: __property NameValueCollection* get_QueryString(); [JScript] public function get QueryString() : NameValueCollection;
Property Value
A NameValueCollection containing the collection of query string variables sent by the client.
Example
The following example accepts the query string from a client form (with a GET method attribute) and writes out the names and values of each named input element on the form. This code would be placed on the ASP.NET page referenced by the form's ACTION attribute.
[Visual Basic] Dim loop1, loop2 As Integer Dim arr1(), arr2() As String Dim coll As NameValueCollection ' Load Form variables into NameValueCollection variable. coll=Request.QueryString ' Get names of all keys into a string array. arr1 = coll.AllKeys For loop1 = 0 To arr1.GetUpperBound(0) Response.Write("Key: " & Server.HtmlEncode(arr1(loop1)) & "<br>") ' Get all values under this key. arr2 = coll.GetValues(loop1) For loop2 = 0 To arr2.GetUpperBound(0) Response.Write("Value " & CStr(loop2) & ": " & Server.HtmlEncode(arr2(loop2)) & "<br><br>") Next loop2 Next loop1 [C#] int loop1, loop2; // Load NameValueCollection object. NameValueCollection coll=Request.QueryString; // Get names of all keys into a string array. String[] arr1 = coll.AllKeys; for (loop1 = 0; loop1 < arr1.Length; loop1++) { Response.Write("Key: " + Server.HtmlEncode(arr1[loop1]) + "<br>"); String[] arr2 = coll.GetValues(arr1[loop1]); for (loop2 = 0; loop2 < arr2.Length; loop2++) { Response.Write("Value " + loop2 + ": " + Server.HtmlEncode(arr2[loop2]) + "<br>"); } } [C++] int loop1, loop2; // Load NameValueCollection object. NameValueCollection* coll=Request->QueryString; // Get names of all keys into a string array. String* arr1[] = coll->AllKeys; for (loop1 = 0; loop1 < arr1->Length; loop1++) { Response->Write(String::Format(S"Key: {0}<br>", Server->HtmlEncode(arr1[loop1]))); String* arr2[] = coll->GetValues(arr1[loop1]); for (loop2 = 0; loop2 < arr2->Length; loop2++) { Response->Write(String::Format(S"Value {0}: {1}<br>", __box(loop2), Server->HtmlEncode(arr2[loop2]))); } } [JScript] var arr1, arr2 : String[] var coll : NameValueCollection coll=Request.QueryString // Load Form variables into NameValueCollection variable. arr1 = coll.AllKeys // Get names of all keys into a string array. for(var i=0; i < arr1.Length; i++){ Response.Write("Key: " + Server.HtmlEncode(arr1[i]) + "<br>") arr2 = coll.GetValues(i) // Get all values under this key. for(var j=0; j < arr2.Length; j++){ Response.Write("Value " + j + ": " + Server.HtmlEncode(arr2[j]) + "<br><br>") } }
