Query Strings

Query strings provide a simple but limited way of maintaining some state information.You can easily pass information from one page to another, But most browsers and client devices impose a 255-character limit on the length of the URL. In addition, the query values are exposed to the Internet via the URL so in some cases security may be an issue.
A URL with query strings may look like this:


When list.aspx is being requested, the category and product information can be obtained by using the following codes:
[c#]
string categoryid, productid;
categoryid=Request.Params[“categoryid”];
productid=Request.Params[“productid”];

Note: you can only use HTTP-Get method to post the web page, or you will never get the value from query strings.
