I have Url with space and would like to replace spaces with %20(escape them). UrlPathEncode should do that but it do not works on url below which has spaces. Can someone explain why it is not working?

System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode("http://a1.quickcatchlabs.com/phototemplates/football_blimp_1.html?i_url=http://lh3.ggpht.com/yf5lVBB_WNBvBHT1HoIzY1SG0-PY5zRCobP3vBacuSk9N346F7CeAIRSFOltR6ZC1-yf-MNKAcAd7bAZ_A=s612-c&i_name=Patriots  vs Redskins&i_venue_name=Gillette Stadium &i_venue_address=Foxborough , MA&d_Score_0=34&d_Score_1=27&d_Period_0=Final&p_name_0=Patriots &p_name_1=Redskins");

    As the name implies, UrlPathEncode encodes the path. Just the path, not the query portion of the URL. If you add a space to path and run that code again, you will see that the space in the path portion is replaced by a %20, but the spaces in the query portion are not.

    If you replace the call to UrlPathEncode with one to Uri.EscapeUriString, it will correctly encode the entire URL, not just the path.
