HttpRequest.Params in C# : Get Value of Key

[Kevin]

I am attempting to fetch the value of a paramter passed in on the http
request url. Example:

http://localhost.mypage.aspx?ID=12345

In the URL above I am wanting to retrieve the value of the key ID.
When I execute the code below I am getting the entire URL and not just
the value of the key ID. Any suggestions?

string idValue = Request.Params.Get("ID");

Thanks...Kevin

Use the querystring
<%
Response.Write(Request.QueryString["ID"]);
// Below line outputs same but works for arrays of same named params
Response.Write(Request.QueryString.GetValues("ID")[0]);
%>

or in VB.NET
<%
Response.Write(Request.QueryString("ID"))
Response.Write(Request.QueryString.GetValues("ID")(0))
%>

Just try using

string idValue = Request["ID"] for C#
or
string idValue = Request("ID") for VB.NET

That way you dont have to worry bout whether the param was passed using
query string or as a part of post.
