building url newbie question - HELP:)

[Chris D]

Hi - can someone PLEASE tell me what's wrong with the script below. In debug
I verified that 'registrant' has a value. I can't figure our how to build the
URL & this script generates the error "operator + cannot be applied to
operands of type string & method group". MANY THANKS

<a
href='https://dev.onlineforms.phsa.ca/Ccsp/CcspConfirmRegistration.htm?Registrant='" + registrant.ToString + ">Confirm Registration</a></p>"

Hi Peter - thanks for helping but the following :

sBody += "<a
href='https://dev.onlineforms.phsa.ca/Ccsp/CcspConfirmRegistration.htm?Registrant='" + this.registrant.ToString() + ">Confirm Registration</a></p>";

still comes back with the Url below yet Debug returns (String) 67 for
'registrant' & the project builds without error

https://dev.onlineforms.phsa.ca/Ccsp/CcspConfirmRegistration.htm?Registrant=

Bingo!!!!! ... You made my day Peter. Huge thanks ... Chris

url = string.Format("https://dev.blah.ca/blah?Registrant={0}",
HttpUtility.UrlEncode(registrant));

01: It's neater to use string.Format
02: You need to use UrlEncode.
