I am trying to add a query string at the end of URL for a hyperlink control as follows

HyperLink testLink = new HyperLink();
testLink.NavigateUrl = "http://www.example.com" + "?siteId=asd343s32kj343dce";

But when this is rendered in the browser it is displaying as
http://www.example.com/?siteId=asd343s32kj343dce (/ char after the .com).

And if the testLink.NavigateUrl = "http://www.example.com/abc.aspx" + "?siteId=asd343s32kj343dce";

Then the link is rendered correctly as http://www.abcd.com/abc.aspx?siteId=asd343s32kj343dce (No extra characters).

Am I missing any thing? Please advice.

Thank you,
Krishna.

    The browser is correcting the URL for you by assuming that there should be a slash after the domain name. You might run into problems with browsers that doesn’t do this, so you should correct the URL to:

    testLink.NavigateUrl = "http://www.abcd.com/" + "?siteId=asd343s32kj343dce";

    The reason that the slash should be after the domain name is that the domain name itself can not be a resource. The domain name just specifies the web site, the URL has to have something that specifies a resource on that site, and the slash specifies the default page in the root folder of the site.
